Righting Israel’s wrongs
Oh, Heavenly Father if you would permit me
To right Israel’s wrongs
They disobeyed you from the throne
Didn’t hear your call, and you didn’t even need a phone
By the mouth of the prophets was your tone
Oh, Heavenly Father, we were wrong
You delivered us from many captivities
Even sent your Son so that we could all see
We still didn’t believe
We rejected you, after we all knew
Your majesty
How could this be?
That we could slay our King?
We are guilty
Oh, Heavenly Father
I Beseech thee
May I stand in the gap and repent from this misery
May I right the wrongs so that all evil could not come to be?
Accept me as a sacrifice
So that all Israel may think twice
About how nice you’ve been
Even named us, your own kin
Your promises have no end
May you grant the work of my hands
That it may save the household of your land
That I may right all the wrongs,
This is my daily new song
