1. If the fields are parched And the trees are felled Will the rocks cry aloud on their own If the birds are starved And the beasts are killed Will the bones in the dust lift a song
Chorus Have mercy, Lord Have mercy, Lord Forgive our broken ways Have mercy, Lord Have mercy, Lord Renew the world you made
2. As the oceans rise And the wells run dry Do we care if disaster is near If our children starve Will they cry to God Will they curse us for closing our ears
3. Still a day will come When the Lord returns And the earth will be perfect again No more greed or war No more tooth and claw For the wolf and the lamb will be friends
