Songs of Praise From a Strange Land <br />
Marsha Stevens and Cindy Pino <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
(Vs.1:) By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept. <br />
Our captors demanded a song of praise. <br />
But how can we sing the songs of home, <br />
In this distant place? <br />
<br />
(Chorus:) Song of praise from a strange land <br />
In our hearts we are free and though in exile still, <br />
we’re singing songs of praise. <br />
Songs of praise. We’re forgiving and we find we are living <br />
In Your grace, in Your strength, singing praise. <br />
<br />
(Vs.2:) Though in exile still we have found a home, <br />
Hidden beneath Your wings of grace. <br />
The gates of hell can never stand against <br />
A people strong in praise. <br />
<br />
(repeat Chorus) <br />
<br />
Let our song set us free <br />
Break these chains of fear, <br />
Let our God hear our plea, <br />
We exalt you Lord of lands far and near. <br />
<br />
(repeat Chorus) <br />
In Your grace, in Your strength, singing praise. <br />
