If My People

Christians are taking America by seige;
Not by humbling ourselves and falling on our knees.
By getting angry with the government and holding a grudge;
Forgetting that the government is on God's shoulder and He is the Most High Judge.

Though not real Christians;
They just use God's name;
And they try to bring it to a terrible shame.
Who got the thought, what gave you the notion;
That you could kill a doctor, blow up an abortion clinic,
And this would stop abortions.
If we want to take a nation and turn it around,
Then we must go to our praying ground.
For we are the ones who are called by God's name;
And through our prayers a nation will be brought to change.
God will hear from Heaven and forgive our sins,
And heal this land from end to end.

If My people who are called by My name;
Will humble themselves, seek My face and pray.
Then will I hear from Heaven;
And heal this land today.

II Chronicles 7:14
