Can you hear the cry of humanity
Desperate and in need, a fractured creation
Innocence for sale on every street
Poverty and unbelief
The love is growing colder

Let it not be said of us
We've done each other wrong
By giving up home and doing nothing at all

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Now is our time to stand up
Let heaven shine through us
Revealing like a flood
Mercy come through us the world is ours to love

(whoa, whoa, whoa)

We all know divided house fall
When we stand alone
It doesn't look like love at all
So let us be your hope, your hands, your feet
To help the least of these
God we know you'll be enough

Oh, though the earth will pass away
Your kingdom will remain
It's here in us now, it's here in us now

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Now is our time to stand up
Let heaven shine through us
Revealing like a flood
Mercy come through us the world is ours to love

(whoa, whoa, whoa)

So let your kingdom come
Your will be done
Here in us now

So let your kingdom come
Your will be done
Here in us now
You're here in us now
You're here in us now
Yeah

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Now is our time to stand up
Let heaven shine through us
Revealing like a flood
Mercy come through us the world is ours to love

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Yeah
