O Lord the Clouds Are Gathering
O Lord, the clouds are gathering
The fire of judgment burns
How we have fallen!
O Lord, you stand appalled to see
Your laws of love so scorned
And lives so broken
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
O Lord, over the nations now
Where is the dove of peace?
Her wings are broken
O Lord, while precious children starve
The tools of war increase
Their bread is stolen
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
O Lord, dark powers are poised to flood
Our streets with hate and fear
We must awaken!
O Lord, let love reclaim the lives
That sin would sweep away
And let your kingdom come
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord (Women)
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
Yet, O Lord, your glorious cross shall tower
Triumphant in this land
Evil confounding
Through the fire your suffering church display
The glories of her Christ
Praises resounding!
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
A never failing stream
The fire of judgment burns
How we have fallen!
O Lord, you stand appalled to see
Your laws of love so scorned
And lives so broken
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
O Lord, over the nations now
Where is the dove of peace?
Her wings are broken
O Lord, while precious children starve
The tools of war increase
Their bread is stolen
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
O Lord, dark powers are poised to flood
Our streets with hate and fear
We must awaken!
O Lord, let love reclaim the lives
That sin would sweep away
And let your kingdom come
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord (Women)
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow

Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord

Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers

And righteousness like a never failing stream
Have mercy, Lord
Have mercy, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Forgive us, Lord
Restore us, Lord
Revive your church again
Let justice flow
Let justice flow
Like rivers
Like rivers
And righteousness like a never failing stream
A never failing stream
