Why don’t we think of saints across the nations wide
Why don’t we pray for their strength to stand, and in our Lord confide
Why don’t we think of friends who for the Gospel die
Why don’t we pray for the saints of God and to our Savior Cry

Oh Jesus give them strength, to battle for Your Truth
My Savior give them the strength to stand, to stand up tall for You
Oh Yahweh give them hope, that they might not forget
Your Grace and loved poured out full for them, that saved them from the Pit

Your people suffer pain, they are hated by the World
Help them to see that your love abounds, help them to grasp your Sword
They are tortured, raped, and burned; they are martyred for Your Name
Help us to trust in our Savior True, for when we face the same

We know that in your Word, You promised suffering
And from Your Word we know this Sure Truth, that You reign as the King
When we are hated by the World and Satan’s Crew
The World does not hate your children small, oh Lord their hate’s for You

Oh give your people strength, when persecution comes
If for our pain You are praised Most High, we suffer in Your Love
To suffer for your Praise, we count it Joy Supreme
We are but servants of God Most High, our loving Lord and King

Lord give your people Hope, your persecuted Own
That they’ll look unto your Son our Lord, who ruleth from The Throne
Help them to understand, their time on earth is small
Cause them to see the pearly Gate, the Golden Roads and Halls
