Deep,
breathy
sigh)
O
Lord,
my
God,
my
heart
is
breaking,
The
land
is
filled
with
tears
and
pain.
I
hear
the
cries
of
grieving
mothers,
And
watch
the
innocent
fall
again.
The
fields
are
silent,
hope
is
fading,
Yet
still
I
lift
my
eyes
to
You.
Though
darkness
covers
many
places,
Your
promises
remain
so
true.
How
long,
O
Lord?
Hear
our
crying.
How
long
until
Your
justice
comes?
Our
hearts
are
weak,
but
we
keep
trusting;
You
are
the
Holy,
Faithful
One.
Remember
Nigeria,
Lord
of
mercy,
Stretch
out
Your
mighty
hand
once
more.
Comfort
the
broken,
heal
the
weary,
And
walk
with
us
through
this
open
door.
Oh,
let
Your
light
break
through
the
shadow,
Restore
the
peace
we
long
to
see.
Remember
Nigeria,
Lord
of
mercy,
Bring
home
the
soul
of
our
country.
From
the
northern
hills
to
the
southern
waters,
The
echoes
of
sorrow
fill
the
air.
We’
ve
lost
our
brothers,
we’
ve
lost
our
daughters,
Caught
in
the
grip
of
cold
despair.
The
streets
are
quiet,
the
markets
empty,
We
search
for
signs
of
a
better
day.
But
You
are
the
rock
in
every
tempest,
You
are
the
truth,
the
light,
the
way.
How
long,
O
Lord?
Hear
our
crying.
How
long
until
Your
justice
comes?
Our
hearts
are
weak,
but
we
keep
trusting;
You
are
the
Holy,
Faithful
One.
Remember
Nigeria,
Lord
of
mercy,
Stretch
out
Your
mighty
hand
once
more.
Comfort
the
broken,
heal
the
weary,
And
walk
with
us
through
this
open
door.
Oh,
let
Your
light
break
through
the
shadow,
Restore
the
peace
we
long
to
see.
Remember
Nigeria,
Lord
of
mercy,
Bring
home
the
soul
of
our
country.
We
wait
in
the
silence,
we
wait
in
the
dark,
We’
re
fanning
the
flame
of
a
dying
spark.
But
faith
is
a
whisper
that
screams
in
the
night,
We’
re
walking
by
faith,
waiting
for
the
light.
Restore
us,
O
Lord,
restore
us
now,
To
You
alone
we
make
our
vow.
Remember
Nigeria,
Lord
of
mercy,
Stretch
out
Your
mighty
hand
once

Comfort
the
