God Answers Prayers

Not By Race, But By God's Grace

We’ve been joined as family together
Through God’s unmerited grace
A union beyond nationality
Beyond culture, creed and race

United together through Jesus Christ
No matter where we come from
For the grace of God has no limit
Nor boundaries we can’t go beyond

But it extends right across the world
To every corner of the globe
The light of God must reach out toward
The ones that do not know

That they will believe in Jesus Christ
And be filled with God’s own light
For Jesus accepts all that would come
No one will He ever deny

For we were once in darkness too
Dying and lost in our sin
But in God’s love He saved our souls
And placed His love within

We’ve come from different walks of life
And so many different lands
But it shouldn’t matter in the family of God
And we must come to understand

That when our Lord looks upon us
He does not see our race
But looks straight into our open hearts
Where He’s filled us with His grace

For this is what truly binds us
Together in His love
Brothers and sisters in the Lord
Washed clean by Jesus blood

For when we come together in love
We are truly unified
It shouldn’t matter where we’ve come from
For Jesus will be glorified!
