lyrics

“Where is your heart, son? What did you think my love was all about?
Is it a license to keep the world locked out?
Are there not orphans, hungry and weary, who need open hands?
Open your heart, son, and let the weak climb in."
Lord, I can see Your handprints on us all,
But I've built up such a wall.
Help me to stand alongside
The outcast, the poor, the small.
“Life is a vast sea, and many are kept at bay by loneliness.
Don't be another ship passing in the night.
Find someone who needs a sympathetic ear, a hand to hold.
Don't shield your eyes, son, don't turn away from me,
Or from the least of these."
Sister, you are hungry. Brother, you're thirsty.
How can I keep what I have from you?
Brother, you have wisdom. Sister, you glow, too.
How can I grow from behind these walls?
Sister, you are lovely. Brother, you're like me.
I must make it my practice to tear down these walls.
