For Those Tears I Died

"Can God Forget?"

"Can God Forget?"

Centuries of years have gone by
The land where we live is so dry
Oh, when will the Lord hear our cry?
God give us this land or we die.

Can the rivers forget how to run?
Can a woman forget her own son?
Can the sun cease to set?
Yes, they can, but my God can't forget.

The land that we live in it sleeps
But somewhere a soul softly weeps
Oh, when will my God move His hand?
Or doesn't the Lord understand?

Can the rivers forget how to run?
Can a woman forget her own son?
Can the sun cease to set?
Yes, they can, but my God can't forget.

Lord, in Your Word we have read
That You can make life from the dead
Oh, why then have You not moved yet?
Can it be that my Lord could forget?

Can the rivers forget how to run?
Can a woman forget her own son?
Can the sun cease to set?
Yes, they can, but my God can't forget.

Children, how small is your faith?
Is My hand so short it can't save?
How can I forget even one
When I look on the hands of my Son?

Can the rivers forget how to run?
Can a woman forget her own son?
Can the sun cease to set?
Yes, they can, but my God can't forget.
