Open up the skies of mercy
And rain down the cleansing flood
Healing waters rise around us
And hear our cries, Lord
Let 'em rise

Open up the skies of mercy
And rain down the cleansing flood
Healing waters rise around us
And hear our cries, Lord
Let 'em rise

It's Your kindness, Lord
That leads us to repentance
Your favor, Lord
Is our desire
It's Your beauty, Lord
That makes us stand in silence
And Your love, Your love is better than life

We can feel Your mercy falling
You are turning our hearts back again
Hear our praises rise to heaven
Draw us near, Lord
Meet us here

It's Your kindness, Lord
That leads us to repentance
Your favor, Lord
Is our desire
It's Your beauty, Lord
That makes us stand in silence
And Your love, Your love

It's Your kindness, Lord
That leads us to repentance
Your favor, Lord
Is our desire
It's Your beauty, Lord
That makes us stand in silence
And Your love, Your love is better than life

It's better than life
Your love

Open up the skies of mercy
And rain down the cleansing flood
Healing waters rise around us
And hear our cries, Lord
Let 'em rise

Spoken:
Lord, we stand here as a desperate people
Hungry for the things of You
Come quiet the storms that rage all around us
So that we hear the passion that beats through Your heart
Spirit, put healing in our hands
Put life in our words
And drive a passion for the lost deep in the hearts of Your people
Inhabit the praises of us, Your children
And, Father, send us out with a reckless passion
Deliver us from evil
And set a standard of unity to break down walls and to heal Your people
Unity is the cry of Your church, Lord
Reconcile the children to the fathers
And with forgiveness and mercy, rushing through the hearts of our land
We cry out our deep need for You, Jesus
Oh, God, come in power and bring glory to Your name
