Lyrics for KING – O God Forgive Us

We’ve prayed the prayer with no reply.
Words float off into the night.
Couldn’t cut our doubt with the sharpest knife.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.

Silence isn’t comfortable.
We want drive through peace and instant hope.
Our shallow faith—it has left us broke.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.

Enslaved to our uncertainty.
Help us with our unbelief.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.

Young and old, black and white,
Rich and poor: there’s no divide.
Hear the mighty, hear the powerless
Singing, «Oh, oh, God, forgive us.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.»

Enslaved to our uncertainty.
Help us with our unbelief.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.

Forgive us.
Yes, we have ignored you.
So busy doing your work
That we forgot that this was for you.
Arms wide to our homeless savior,
But arms crossed to our homeless neighbor.
On bended knee.
Unite us all.
Set us free.

With our white flag sailing in the night,

With our white flag sailing in the night,
Eyes pointed to the sky,
Hands up and open wide, open wide.

With our white flag sailing in the night,
Eyes pointed to the sky,
Hands up and open wide, open wide.

With our white flag sailing in the night,
Eyes pointed to the sky,
Hands up and open wide, open wide.

Oh, oh, God, forgive us.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.

Enslaved to our uncertainty.
Help us with our unbelief.
Oh, oh, God, forgive us.
