City of Hope - Amanda Cook

City of Hope Lyrics

Once we were a barren land
Dry from disappointment
But Heaven, like a heavy rain
Revealed Your heart for us
Now we're dusting off our instruments
In You we've found our will to live
What was once a wilderness
Is teeming with new life
You are mending the broken-hearted
You are making all things new
You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love
Adoption is our heritage
Chosen from the orphanage
The Father's great inheritance

Bestowed upon us all
You are mending the broken-hearted
You are making all things new
You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love
We're the ones You love
We're the ones You love
We're the ones You love
We're the ones You love
You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love
You are mending the broken-hearted
You are making all things new
You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love
