Verse 1
B      E  B                 E
We confess the sins of our nation
B                E     C#m7              F#
And Lord we are guilty of a prayerless life
B             E   B                     E
We've turned away our hearts from Your laws
B                   E      C#m7              F#
And have taken for granted Your unchanging grace

Pre-Chorus
E                     B               E              B
You said that if we'd humble ourselves and begin to pray
E                   B              C#m7                   F#
You would heal our barren land and cleanse us with Your rain

Chorus
E             B   E                    B
Don't pass us by, let this be the generation Lord
E                  B                F#
That lifts up Your name to all the world
E           B    E                 B
Save us oh God, save a people for Yourself oh Lord
E                    B              F#    B C#m7 B/C#D
Let the fear of the Lord be our standard
E           B     E                  B
Save us oh God, cleanse us from our unfaithfulness
E                       B                F#         E
Let the place where we live be called a house of prayer

Verse 2
Turn away this curse from our country
We say that weve robbed You and our storehouses are bare
Open wide the floodgates of heaven
Rebuke the devourer so we may not be destroyed
