My Nation Healed
Free Chapel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If my people who are called by my name
Would humble themselves and pray
Then You would hear from Heaven
Then You would heal the land
Oh God
Open up the windows of heaven
And thirsty land
I am Yours called by Your name
I bow down humble myself and pray
Father, hear me, Father make it right
And use my generation
To heal the nations crying out
I won't delay, I won't hesitate
I will obey Your call and abandon all to see
The power of God
Your glory revealed, my nation healed
I am Yours called by Your name
I bow down humble myself and pray
Father, hear me, Father make it right
And use my generation
To heal the nations crying out
I won't delay, I won't hesitate
I will obey your call and abandon all to see
The power of God
Your glory revealed, my nation healed
We cry out, we cry out, open up
Open up the heavens pour out healing rain
Open up, open up the Heavens
I want to see my nation healed
The song My Nation Healed by Free Chapel talks about the power of prayer and how it can heal not just an individual, but a whole nation. The song takes inspiration from the Bible verse 2 Chronicles 7:14 which says "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." The song encourages individuals to humble themselves, pray and seek God's face, and ask Him for healing rain to fall on a dry and thirsty land.
The lyrics use powerful imagery of opening up the windows of heaven and pouring out healing rain to emphasize the hope and restoration that can come from prayer. The song believes that through God's power and glory, a generation can bring healing to a nation that is crying out for help. The lyrics encourage individuals not to delay or hesitate, but to obey the call of God and abandon all to see the power of God revealed and the nation healed.
The song is an inspiring call to action for believers to come together and pray for healing and restoration for their nation. The song acknowledges that real change can only come through God's power and grace, and it encourages individuals to seek God's face through prayer and to act in obedience to His call.
