Send down Your blessings, dear Lord
Allow me to feel Your kindness and love
The mercy that comes from Your Son
Grace so alive it feels like I’ve broken free
Of the sins, the flaws, the darkness
That penetrates my spirit with pain, anger
And all of the things that I wish to leave
Behind me, in the past where I used to be

Send down Your blessings, dear Father
Cause me to know You better with each miracle
Blessings of love so warm I feel the affection
Tenderness like a hope that colors the heart
In hues of insight and delight, beauty so wise
It pours out joy and peace, feelings that believe
Only the Son and His grace can free the soul
From the distress that brings doubt and depression
Dread that beckons hearts to feel the anguish
Of knowing that trouble is always there, haunting
With its never-ending grief, its pang of misery

Send down Your blessings, dear God
Remind me that You are there, alive
Willing to give me a second chance, a new life
Born out of the love that Jesus taught us to know
With His grace and His wonder, His courage
All the songs of a heart who gives unconditionally
With a purity, a promise that is more sure
Than the love that falls all over with its truth
When we are brought to our knees
At the foot of the cross where we can see
Love that brings true peace, true belief
Truth that sounds like strength and relief
Love that is alive in the soul who believes

Jesus is the answer to every prayer we breath
