City of Hope

VERSE 1

Once we were a barren land

Dry from disappointment

But Heaven like a heavy rain

Revealed Your heart for us

VERSE 2

Now we’re dusting off our instruments

In You we found our will to live

What was once a wilderness

Is teeming with new life

CHORUS

Cause You are mending the brokenhearted

You are making all things new

You’re rebuilding out of the ruins

A city of hope, with the ones You love

VERSE 3

Adoption is our heritage

Chosen from the orphanage

The Father’s great inheritance

Bestowed upon us all

BRIDGE

And we’re the ones You love
