Pertama kali denger dan nyanyi lagu ini pas di KMdN XIII. Waktu itu hampir setiap hari sepanjang acara pasti ada lagu ini. Apa aku suka lagu ini? Jelas! Hahaha. Kalo enggak ngapain sampai di post di blog. So enjoy, hope you like it too :)
Beauty for brokenness
Hope for despair
Lord, in the suffering
This is our prayer
Bread for the children
Justice, joy, peace
Sunrise to sunset
Your kingdom increase!
Shelter for fragile lives
Cures for their ills
Work for the craftsman
Trade for their skills
Land for the dispossessed
Rights for the weak
Voices to plead the cause
Of those who can't speak
Reff:
God of the poor
Friend of the weak
Give us compassion we pray
Melt our cold hearts
Let tears fall like rain
Come, change our love
From a spark to a flame
Refuge from cruel wars
Havens from fear
Cities for sanctuary
Freedoms to share
Peace to the killing-fields
Scorched earth to green
Christ for the bitterness
His cross for the pain
Rest for the ravaged earth
Oceans and streams
Plundered and poisoned
Our future, our dreams
Lord, end our madness
Carelessness, greed
Make us content with
The things that we need
Lighten our darkness
Breathe on this flame
Until your justice
Burns brightly again
Until the nations
Learn of your ways
Seek your salvation
And bring you their praise
Promise me to be strong
Promise me to always put on a smile even though your feet hurt
Promise me to always put on a smile even though your heart aches the most
Promise me to always keep your eyes open wide for those in need
Promise me to hold your tears when they can not control their words
Promise me to always think straight, even when the Goliaths running toward you
Promise me to always have a warm heart so that you can warm others
Promise me to always do the right things, even when others do not
Promise me to drink as much water as you can to stabilize your mood
Promise me to eat healthy food as much as I can to keep your brain's Na-K pump working
Because these days dan sleepless night won't last forever. And trust me, you'll gonna miss it someday.
Promise me to be strong
