Debra Sue Powers - Hearts Of America Cry! Lyrics

"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and I will heal their land"!

America don't you know that hearts are scattered among us
Forgotten ones pushed aside
But somehow God he hears our cries
Why must we sit here and die
Let's go and see what's on the other side
Heart's Walls are crying out

America why must we hide
Can't you feel our faith now arise
We refuse to die
To not exist yet alive
We too choose to arise
God has heard our cries
In America

We've risen up America to find new hope beyond its falls
Race is not a foreign place
Colors not an unfamiliar face
Peace is found in a prayerful call
Where healing can restore us all
Heart's Walls are crying out

America why must we hide
Can't you feel our faith now arise
We refuse to die
To not exist yet alive
We too choose to arise
God has heard our cries
In America

America look at us now we too are standing proud
As the walls come down in our hearts
There's no time for hate where love imparts
All over the World repented hearts cry
God fills our hunger wipes the tears from our eyes
Helps the weak stand strong in America
Heart's Walls are crying out

America why must we hide
Can't you feel our faith now arise
We refuse to die
To not exist yet alive
We too choose to arise
God has heard our cries
In America
