Why We're Here

Verse 1:
We proclaim the year of the LORD's favor in this place
We ask the spirit of the LORD to fall on us

Chorus:
This is why we're here
This is what we pray
LORD, please help us
As we're living day to day
This is why we're here
This is what we pray
LORD, please help us
See you will done in this place

Verse 2:
Good new for the poor, binding up the broken hearted
Freedom for the captives, set the prisoners free

Verse 3:
Comfort to the mourners, let praise replace despair
Rebuild the ancient ruins, Be priests of the living God

2nd Chorus:
Our Father in heaven
Hallowed be your name
Your will be done on earth
As it is in heaven

I have been playing around with the words and music to "proclamation". I like this better overall.
