For Heaven's Sake

Have we lost all our hope in each other?

Have we forgotten we're sisters and brothers?

Can we be a little more like Jesus to one another?

Can we give a little grace for Heaven's sake?

For the sake of all that's good and holy

Drop the hatred that we're holding

Let the perfect blood of Jesus wash it all away

Lay our pride down at the altar

Hand it over to the Father until our hearts are changed

For Heaven's sake

Maybe we could learn to love if we'd stop hiding

Maybe we could learn to trust if we'd stop fighting

If we fall down on our knees, we could finally start to see

That He loves us all the same for Heaven's sake

For the sake of all that's good and holy

Drop the hatred that we're holding

Let the perfect blood of Jesus wash it all away

Lay our pride down at the altar

Hand it over to the Father until our hearts are changed

For Heaven's sake

May we all learn to seek understanding

May we all learn to give open-handed

Pouring out our very best, letting Jesus do the rest

So they know His name for Heaven's sake

For the sake of all that's good and holy

Drop the hatred that we're holding

Let the perfect blood of Jesus wash it all away

Lay our pride down at the altar

Hand it over to the Father until our hearts are changed

For Heaven's sake
