In the land of the free, so many are living in chains
All around us is fear, we push and we pull in our longings for love
Here in the home of the brave
But in the real world right now, you're weary you're weak from the fight
Hope is calling out loud, your freedom is waiting, run into the light
Leaving the darkness behind
The city of refuge is open tonight
Come inside, come on inside
A fortress of healing where the weary can hide
Come inside, come on inside
Calling the hurting, the broken and bruised
Jesus is waiting for you in the city of refuge, the city of refuge
Come and rest in this place
'Cause right here is where you belong
It's a shelter of grace
Welcome one, welcome all
The city of refuge is open tonight
Come inside, come on inside
A fortress of healing where the weary can hide
Come inside, come on inside
Calling the hurting, the broken and bruised
Jesus is waiting for you in the city of refuge
Before another moment passes you by
Come on in, why are you standing outside?
The city of refuge is open tonight
Come inside, come on inside
A fortress of healing where the weary can hide
Come inside, come on inside
Pray, into the arms of Jesus is where [Incomprehensible]
He's calling the hurting, the broken and bruised
Jesus is waiting for you in the city of refuge, the city of refuge
