Solomon's Prayer
Oh Lord, God of Israel
There is none like You
You who keep Your covenant of love
With all who in faith abide
Let Your Word become true of my life
Oh Lord, God of Israel
Will You come to dwell with us?
For even the highest heaven cannot contain Your glory
Yet You're here in this house
Where You said Your Name shall be
Hear my cry, Oh Lord, hear my plea
Oh Lord, God of Israel
When the skies bring no rain
When plague or disaster overlay the promise
Then aware of our hearts' afflictions
And our own rebellion
We turn to seek Your face
Forgive our wickedness
And teach us the right way to live
That we may fear Your Name
All our days
Oh Lord, God of Israel
You alone know our hearts
Surely we will stray from You again
For there is none who is righteous
But, in our sins, please don't leave us
Sovereign Lord of Israel
Who led us out of Egypt
From the fire yet back into the fire we'll go for our redemption
And in the land where we are held captive
If we admit of our sin we're ashamed
And that we need Your grace
With all our heart and soul
If we turn back to You from our wrongs
Don't let us remain unchanged
Don't let us remain the same
Oh Lord, God of Israel
You are the God of the foreigner
For we were once all enemies of Your love
But when from a distant land we come
From every people and tribe and tongue
Brought nearer by the blood
Then hear from heaven above
Even as You dwell with us
That all may know You are
You are God
There is none like You
You who keep Your covenant of love
With all who in faith abide
Let Your Word become true of my life
Oh Lord, God of Israel
Will You come to dwell with us?
For even the highest heaven cannot contain Your glory
Yet You're here in this house
Where You said Your Name shall be
Hear my cry, Oh Lord, hear my plea
Oh Lord, God of Israel
When the skies bring no rain
When plague or disaster overlay the promise
Then aware of our hearts' afflictions
And our own rebellion
We turn to seek Your face
Forgive our wickedness
And teach us the right way to live
That we may fear Your Name
All our days
Oh Lord, God of Israel
You alone know our hearts
Surely we will stray from You again
For there is none who is righteous
But, in our sins, please don't leave us
Sovereign Lord of Israel
Who led us out of Egypt
From the fire yet back into the fire we'll go for our redemption
And in the land where we are held captive
If we admit of our sin we're ashamed
And that we need Your grace
With all our heart and soul
If we turn back to You from our wrongs
Don't let us remain unchanged
Don't let us remain the same
Oh Lord, God of Israel
You are the God of the foreigner
For we were once all enemies of Your love
But when from a distant land we come
From every people and tribe and tongue
Brought nearer by the blood
Then hear from heaven above
Even as You dwell with us
That all may know You are
You are God
