Stu White - We Are a Nation (Of Sons and Daughters) Lyrics

We are a people with a promise
Hear our song about the Great Southland
We are not left without a purpose
Never abandoned for You love so well
Redemption comes like the rain
Your mercy calls us to family again
We are a nation of sons and daughters
Carried in our Father's loving hands
These are the times, You're waking hearts to life
Jesus, yes, pour out Your Spirit on this land
Our lucky country suffers anguish
Droughts and fires scorch a sunburnt land, but
You bring beauty for our ashes
You bring healing to Australia
Redemption comes like the rain
Your mercy calls us to family again
We are a nation of sons and daughters
Carried in our Father's loving hands
These are the times, You're waking hearts to life
Jesus, yes, pour out Your Spirit on this land
A thirsty land cries out for living water
How long til our hearts turn and pray?
We need Your rain, flow like a mighty river
Let disappointment wash away
A heart refined, purified with fire
Your kindness draws us to our knees
You're speaking life, 'Rise up my sons and daughters'
It's time to walk in destiny
It's time to walk in destiny
Yeah
We are a nation of sons and daughters
Carried in our Father's loving hands
These are the times, You're waking hearts to life
Jesus, yes, pour out Your Spirit on this land
We are a nation of sons and daughters
Carried in our Father's loving hands
These are the times, You're waking hearts to life
Jesus, yes, pour out Your Spirit on this land
Oh Father, yes, pour out Your Spirit on our land
