Am C Forgive us Lord, for passing by G Am When children cry for bread C Forbid it Lord, that justice lie G Am in tatters, cold and dead C G Outside these walls run desperate streets Am E where greed is law and life is cheap Am C We bar the doors, refuse to see, G Am or hear the words You said: (REFRAIN) Am C G Am Let justice roll like a river. Like a river, let it roll. C G Am Let justice roll like a river. Like a river, let it roll. Convict us Lord, we dance and laugh ignoring those who weep Correct us Lord, our golden calf has lulled our hearts to sleep The gap between the rich and poor grows ever wider, shore to shore There's racial hate, religious war and wolves among the sheep (REPEAT REFRAIN) Indwell us Lord, and purify our hands to work for You Enlist us Lord, to serve nearby and ‘cross the waters, too Your image-bearers on the earth will never know how much they’re worth unless we love and help them first and show the way to You.
