We started out strong

But somewhere along

We lost our way

Done things in Your name

I’m so ashamed

I don’t have the words to say

We’ve killed and destroyed

Stolen and blamed

All in Your name

You told us to give

Told us to love

But we chose to take

You laid down Your life

Put power aside

Showed us The Way and The Truth

We roll into church

Open the Word

And forget that we’re called to include

Now it’s long overdue

But I can’t dilute what we’ve seemed to put on the shelf

I can’t speak for us all

But I gotta believe

I’m speaking for more than myself, when I say

 

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

I’m sorry, so sorry

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

I’m sorry, so sorry

 

We say that we’re one

But we’re broken up

By anything that can divide

Our color of skin

The clothes we’re in

That valley is deep and wide

We overlook the broken

The homeless

And discard the poor

While we celebrate the rich and the beautiful

With a wide-open door

I’m sorry we’re nothing like You

You chose to bare a cross

We chose to give You parts of us

And rarely the parts that cost

Now it’s long overdue

But I can’t dilute what we’ve seemed to put on the shelf

I can’t speak for us all

But I gotta believe

I’m speaking for more than myself when I say

 

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

I’m sorry, so sorry

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

I’m sorry, so sorry

 

Wake us up

Wake us up

Wake us up, Lord

Wake us up

Wake us up

Wake us up

 

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

I’m sorry, so sorry

I’m sorry, I’m sorry

I’m sorry, so sorry

 

Wake us up

Wake us up

Wake us up, Lord

Wake us up

Wake us up

Wake us up

 

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven

Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth

Blessed are they which hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God

Blessed are the peace makers, for they shall be called the Children of God

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven

Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you

falsely for My sake
