Keith & Kristyn Getty Kyrie Eleison Lyrics

KYRIE ELEISON

Kyrie eleison; have mercy.
Christe eleison; have mercy.
Kyrie eleison; have mercy.
Christe eleison; have mercy.

As we come before You
With the needs of our world,
We confess our failures and our sin,
For our words are many
Yet our deeds have been few;
Fan the fire of compassion
Once again.

When the cries of victims
Go unheard in the land,
And the scars of war refuse to heal,
Will we stand for justice To empower the weak
Til their bonds of oppression
Are no more?

If we love our God with all our
Heart, mind, and strength,
And we love our Neighbors as ourselves,
Then this law of love
Will heal the nations of earth,
And the glory of Christ Will be revealed.

Lord, renew our vision
To be Christ where we live,
To reach out in mercy to the lost;
For each cup of kindness
To the least in our midst
Is an offering
