I hear a cry for freedom from the heart of South Sudan,
From persecuted believers driven from their land
Too many years they have suffered
Too many people have died
I'm calling out to you, hear their freedom cry!
I hear a cry for mercy from the orphans of the womb,
Who live their childhood days in fear,
And never know what life is for
In slavery they have suffered
Their innocence has died
I'm calling out to you, hear their freedom cry!
Say a prayer for the saints of Sudan, when you pray tonight
Justice and mercy, peace in the land, for Sudan tonight
Say a prayer for the saints of Sudan, when you pray tonight
Justice and mercy, peace in the land, for Sudan tonight
This forgotten world of knowing years of war and pain
The prisoners of this wilderness are calling you to pray
I hear a song of freedom From a burned out church they pray
They will keep believing that peace will come one day
Their hope, it is in Jesus Christ, and for this name they die
I'm calling out to you, hear their freedom cry
