Build Our Nation on Your Truth

[Verse 1]
In the quiet forge, our hearts are shaped,
By every choice, by the paths we take.
Not wealth or power makes a nation strong,
But doing justice and righting wrong.
When midnight falls, let truth remain,
Let mercy rise above our gain.
A people grounded in what is right,
Will shine like stars throughout the night.
[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, shape our wills, renew our hearts,
Let Your eternal truth impart
The wisdom to discern our way,
And live for You in all we say.
[Chorus]
Build our nation on Your truth,
Shape our hearts and guide our youth.
Let justice flow, let mercy rise,
Let godly wisdom light our skies.
To glorify You, our highest aim,
To find our joy in Jesus’ name.
One heart, one faith, one purpose true,
O Lord, make all our lives for You!
[Verse 2]
Your holy Word, our compass sure,
Your perfect truth forever pure.
What drives our deeds, what guides our way?
What final goal directs each day?
Not selfish gain nor passing pleasure,
But joy in You, our lasting treasure.
In every calling, great or small,
May we obey Your sovereign call.
[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, shape our wills, renew our hearts,
Let Your eternal truth impart
The courage to stand, the strength to grow,
And bear the fruit Your people sow.
[Chorus]
Build our nation on Your truth,
Shape our hearts and guide our youth.
Let justice flow, let mercy rise,
Let godly wisdom light our skies.
To glorify You, our highest aim,
To find our joy in Jesus’ name.
One heart, one faith, one purpose true,
O Lord, make all our lives for You!
[Bridge]
Breathe new life where sin has reigned,
Let hearts be healed, let minds be changed.
Make us steadfast, strong, and wise,
With willing hearts and faithful lives.
Church and nation, side by side,
In truth and love, let us abide.
For peace and justice, let us stand,
And serve our neighbors hand in hand.
[Final Chorus]
Build our nation on Your truth,
Shape our hearts and guide our youth.
Let justice flow, let mercy rise,
Let godly wisdom light our skies.
To glorify You, our highest aim,
To find our joy in Jesus’ name.
One heart, one faith, one purpose true,
O Lord, make all our lives for You!
[Outro]
For Your glory, let us stand,
Faithful stewards in this land.
Our highest joy, our purpose clear:
To glorify You, year by year.
