The Porter’s Gate
The Reign of Mercy
[Intro]
Oooooh, oooooh!
[Verse 1]
Oh may our world at last be just
And hilltops echo with Your peace
A harvest come from barren dust
The reign of mercy never cease
He comes as rain, upon the grass
High heaven's Son to Earth descends
Not as the seasons that will pass
But with a light that never ends
Ooooooh, oooooh
[Verse 2]
Oh come to Him and find your rest
Who saw the poor and came as One
Who hears the cries of the oppressed
And rules 'till all oppression's done
Someday, He'll come to reign as king
And we will see His justice done
Our souls will magnify and sing!
The Christ whose Kingdom now is come
Ooooooh, oooooh
Ooooooh, oooooh
[Verse 3]
And all the mighty and the strong
Will bow before Him on that day!
The silenced fill the world with song
The poor and lowly He will raise
And all our bitterness and tears
Our violence and our endless wars
Will end at last when He draws near
Come soon, come soon, Oh Christ our Lord!
Ooooooh, oooooh
Ooooooh, oooooh
