Precious Souls of Iran
A song made by Mthobisi Silinda
Oh Lord, hear our prayer tonight
For the precious souls, hallelujah
A hundred and eighty, just a number on a page
But they were mothers and fathers, taken in their prime age
Precious souls of Iran, loving daughters they held tight
Gone in a single moment, lost in the dark of night
A strike of a bomb, taking innocent lives away
But we lift up their memory, Lord, we pray today, yes Lord
Oh, the innocent souls of Iran, they never wanted war
They wanted to live, they wanted to soar
God, hold them close in Your heavenly grace, amen
We won't let the world just forget their face
Precious souls, rest in peace, oh Lord, thank You Jesus
They never asked for the fire, never wanted the pain
Just innocent people caught in the earthly rain
No one is talking, but Heaven hears the cry
Of every broken heart searching the quiet sky
Comfort the families, dry every weeping eye
With Your holy spirit, Lord, lift them high, glory
Oh, the innocent souls of Iran, they never wanted war
They wanted to live, they wanted to soar
God, hold them close in Your heavenly grace, amen
We won't let the world just forget their face
Precious souls, rest in peace, oh Lord
Precious souls, amen
Rest in Your peace, Lord
No more war, hallelujah
Amen
