Stand In The Gap

 

Stand In The Gap

Ezekiel 22:30 "I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.

Verse 1:
       E               B        A              E
The eyes of the Father run to and fro
       C#m             B
He’s searching the earth
       A               B              C#m           
He’s looking for those who make intercession
      A                   E
On behalf of their nation
F#m                A              B
Those who will rise up and pray

Chorus:
         E                              B             C#m
We’ll stand in the gap on behalf of our land
         E                             G#            G#7
We’ll stand in the gap on behalf of our land
C#m
Down on our knees
        F#7
We’ll take our stand
        A             B                C#m
*And there intercede for our land
        A                B                 E     (B)
We’ll pray for the needs of our land

Verse 2:
       E             B              A                   E
The powers of darkness released on our lands
       C#m      B
Will never prevail
       A             B
Will never withstand
        C#m
The deep intercession
        A            E
By a people of passion
F#m                A              B
Those who will rise up and pray
(Repeat Chorus)

        A                B                 E     
We’ll pray for the needs of our land
