We've been crumbled, we've been crushed
City walls have turned to dust
Broken hands and blistered feet
We walk for miles to find reliefWhen the thief takes, when our hopes cave
You build us back
You build us backWhen the earth shakes, when the world breaks
You build us back
You build us backWe are scared, we are poor
All our safety nets are torn
We've been humbled to our knees
From these ruins, we believeWhen the thief takes, when our hopes cave
You build us back
You build us backWhen the earth shakes, when the world breaks
You build us back
You build us backRedeemer, redeem us
Restorer, restore us
Oh build us back
Though the mountains be shaken, the hills be removed
Your unfailing love remains
After all that's been taken, Your promise, still sacred
You build us back with precious stonesWhen the thief takes, when our hopes cave
You build us back
You build us backWhen the earth shakes, when the world breaks
You build us back
You build us back
