Cry for the afflicted

Strengthen the hands that are feeble
Steady the knees that are weak
Say to the ones who are fearfull
Your God is full of strength
Deliver the poor and the needy
Defend the widow and the child
Come with divine retribution
And save us from this mire

Chorus: Then will the eyes of the blind be opened

Then will the ears of the deaf hear
Then will the tongue of the mute shout for joy
And the lame will leap like a deer

Verse 2: Cause us to be a shelter from the winds
Lord For those who stand in the sand
Like streams of water in the desert
in a dry and thirsty land

Cause us to reach for the broken
extend a hand to the lost
May we pray without ceasing
intercede at all cost
