esus commands us to go,
|
|
but we go the other way.
|
|
So He carries the burden alone,
|
|
While His children are busy at play,
|
|
Feeling so called to stay.
|
|
|
Oh, how God grieves and believes that the world can't be saved,
|
|
Unless the ones He's appointed obeys,
|
|
His command and His stand for the world,
|
|
That He loved more than life.
|
|
Oh He died, and he cries out tonight.
|
|
Jesus commands us to go,
|
|
It should be the exception if we stay.
|
|
It's no wonder we're moving so slow,
|
|
When His church refuses to obey,
|
|
Feeling so called to stay.
|
|
|
Oh how God calls, as He stalls the great judgment of fire,
|
|
So He can gain, His Greatest desire.
|
|
Cause He knows that the souls of the lost,
|
|
They can only be reached, through us,
|
|
We're His hands and His feet.
|
|
|
Jesus commands us to go,
|
|
It should be the exception if we stay.
|
|
It's no wonder we're moving so slow,
|
|
When God's children refuse to obey,
|
|
Feeling so called to stay.
