Come to Me Nehemiah

"Just a comparison to how stripped down and vunerable we all can be; and a statement of how we all need help at one time or another." - K.S.
Verse 1:
I am Jerusalem and all my walls have fallen down.
Not even one gate
is left standing,
burned to the ground, burned to the ground.

All the good people who once dwelled here,
Fled to the country and scattered far and wide,
And now God's temple is left open, and
Theives and robbers,
theives and robbers come to hide.

Chorus:
Come to me Nehemiah
Bring your mortar and mend this broken heart.
Bring strong armed men and arm them, and
Pray for the peace,
Pray for the peace,
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Verse 2:
Hear O' Israel the Lord is your God,
He brought you
out of Egypt.
Out of bondage and into freedom, and
He can rebuild, yes
He can rebuild this wall.

So, sound your trumpets and sing oh choir
Praise him on your harp and on your lyre
He is a God above all gods, and, He is worthy, yes
He is worthy, He is worthy to be praised. (CH)
