City of Hope

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
'Cause You are mending the broken-hearted
You are making all things new
And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love

[Verse 2]
Adoption is our heritage
Chosen from the orphanage
The Father's great inheritance bestowed upon us all

[Chorus]
'Cause You are mending the broken-hearted
You are making all things new
And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love

[Bridge]
And we're the ones You love
We're the ones You love
We're the ones You love
We're the ones You love

[Chorus]
And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love
Yes, You are mending the broken-hearted
You are making all things new
And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope with the ones You love
