You Will Not Steal Our Children

there is one the angels bow to praise
there is one whose name's above all names
the one who brought out lazarus from the grave
says ‘let my people go, let my people go'

there is one before all things began
he who was and is and is to come
the one who is the father, spirit, son
says ‘let my people go, let my people go'

you will not steal our children
you will never break our hearts
you will not steal our children
you will never break our hearts

there is one the prophets longed to see
a man who walked in love and purity
the one who broke your power at calvary
says ‘let my people go, let my people go'

we pray and we pray
we cry out with tears for our children
we pray and we pray
we stand in the power of jesus
