The Brilliance - Hear Our Prayer lyrics

[Verse 1] Systems of oppression fueled by hate Held up by a lie we can't escape Humanity, a history of tragedy Does it have to be the future of us all? [Chorus] Hear our prayer Hear your people Turn our hearts to you Make us whole again Hear our prayer Hear your people Turn our hearts to you Make us one [Verse 2] Violence, power, struggle, fear, and shame Will the story always be the same? Can we ever be the people we are meant to be? Does it have to be the future of us all? [Chorus] Hear our prayer Hear your people Turn our hearts to you Make us whole again Hear our prayer Hear your people Turn our hearts to you Make us one [Outro] Open our hearts So love can start To heal the pain Open our hearts So love can start To heal the pain Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Love shall overcome Oh my God What have we done? What have we become? These seeds were sown They were sown in ages past Now we're reaping them in full How can we fix this? Learn from our mistake How can we fix this? Or is the mess too great?
