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

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

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