Heal This Land

Heavenly places we seek to find Here lies a desert With spirits running dry It's braver to listen Open our hearts With our history and fame Is it clear who's to blame? You calmed the waters Called on the storms to die With our faith how we look to the sky Our nations built from the same rock not the sand O Lord you can heal this land Honour and glory tied up in chains Blind to the future that keeps us in pain Let's change our armour For words of love With His spirit as our sword Fill our hearts with trust my lord You calmed the waters Called on the storms to die With our faith how we look to the sky Our nations built from the same rock not the sand O Lord you can heal this land Wonderful children destined to be Climbing in darkness Ashamed for you and me Prayers can be answered Let's move mountains high God we reach for ancient skies Let our faith never die You calmed the waters Called on the storms to die With our faith how we look to the sky Our nations built from the same rock not the sand O Lord you can heal this land --- Heal This Land - Máire Brennan and Moya Brennan
