From babies hidden in the shadows
To the cities shining bright
There are captives weeping
Far from sight
For every doorway has a story
And some are holding back the cries
But there is one who hears at the nightGreat God
Wrap your arms around this world tonight
Around the world tonight
And when you hear our cries
Sing through the night
So we can join in your song
And sing along yeah,
We'll sing alongFrom the farthest corners of the earth
Still his mercy reaches
Even to the pain we cannot see
And even through the darkness
There's a promise that will keep us
There is one who came to set us freeGreat God
Wrap Your arms around this world tonight
Around the world tonight
And when you hear our cries
Sing through the night
So we can join in your song
And sing along, yeah
We'll sing alongSo let your song rise
And fill up the earth
Let your hope ring out
Let your heart be heardSo let your song rise
And fill up the earth
Let your hope ring out
Let your heart be heardOh, great God
Wrap Your arms around this world tonight
Around the world tonight
And when you hear our cries
Sing through the night
And we will join in your song
And sing along, yeah
