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 found our will to live
What was once a wilderness
Is teeming with new life

'Cause You are mending the brokenhearted
You are making all things new
And 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

'Cause You are mending the brokenhearted
You are making all things new
And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope, with the ones You love

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

And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope, with the ones You love
'Cause You are mending the brokenhearted
You are making all things new
And You're rebuilding out of the ruins
A city of hope, with the ones You love
