A Prayer for the People Video (MV)

This feels dangerous
Oh, and it's taken us so long now
Just to get to the starting line
To the starting line
And what's been safe for us
Has really been breaking us all along now
Search our hearts, bring it all to light
Bring it all to light
And when it feels like it costs too much
Would you teach us compassion and love
Would you give us ears to hear
And give us eyes to see?
Grant us grace and courage
Keep us on our knees
Would you make us quick to learn
And make us slow to speak?
Grant us grace and courage
Keep us on our knees
Because the cross you gave
Is the cost you paid for us
And we're so problematic
It's almost automatic, yeah, we don't wanna be
So uncomfortable, it's so unnatural
But I know we can't afford to ignore it, so
Melt our defenses
Awaken all our senses
So we can see what our brothers see
So we can weep when our brothers weep
And when it feels like it costs too much
Would you teach us compassion and love
Would you give us ears to hear
And give us eyes to see?
Grant us grace and courage
Keep us on our knees
Would you make us quick to learn
And make us slow to speak?
Grant us grace and courage
Keep us on our knees
Because the cross you gave
Is the cost you paid for us
We can do better, we can do better
We can be better, we can be better
God, make us better, God, make us better
Would you give us ears to hear
And give us eyes to see?
Grant us grace and courage
Keep us on our knees
Would you make us quick to learn
And make us slow to speak?
Grant us grace and courage
Keep us on our knees
Because the cross you gave
Is the cost you paid for us
Because the cross you gave
Is the cost you paid for us
