Faith for the city
Lyrics and chords
Faith for the city: (2 Corinthians 4.13) From the album, ‘Inside Out
“I believed and therefore I spoke out.”
The ‘Faith in the City’ report spoke of the church needing to be involved in the world; speaking out against oppression and injustice of any kind.
Jesus is the only hope for the city, the world, and will lead us home to his love and peace. Angie

Teach us lord to have faith for the city, lead us home.
Won’t someone give a job and give me my dignity, give me my dignity, give me my dignity.
Someone give a job and give me my dignity, lead us home.
Look at the crime rate, it’s up in the city, up in the city, up in the city,
Look at the crime rate, it’s up in the city, lead us home.
Kids with no hope turn to drugs in the city, drugs in the city, drugs in the city,
Kids with no hope turn to drugs in the city, lead us home.
Jesus is the only hope for the city, hope for the city, hope for the city.
Jesus is the only hope for the city, lead us home.
