We sing; we dance
We listen every Sunday to
What is being preached
Yet there is still more talking
And less action, because of our unbelief
We know what we should do
So why aren't we doing it?
We know what the Truth is
So why aren't we choosing it?
I will tell you why
Because we talk too much
About what we want to do
And what we know we should do
But we don't put into action
The power of the Gospel
And its life changing truth
We very seldom hear the simple
Gospel of Jesus Christ
We comfortably sit in our
Religion, full of compromise
We hear only the messages that tickle our ears
And every Sunday we walk out of church the same
Our heart remains, unmoved and unchanged
We continue to praise God with our lips
But our hearts remain far from Him
We think we can hide, cover and conceal
All our hidden sin
We cannot, but we continue to play
These religious games
Thinking God can't see behind our
Hypocrisy and masquerades
There is a world out there waiting to hear
The Gospel and its life changing truth
The harvest is plentiful
But the workers are few
There are so many people
Dying, crying, and
Desperately in need
These people are waiting to hear the
Hope that is within you and me
There is not one drug addict
That is not worth the time
There is not one drunkard out there
That couldn't be changed and delivered
By the power of Jesus Christ
Every single broken soul
Can be healed and made whole
Every person, is worth it
No one is so far gone, that God can't
Reach them and make them new
God is waiting. The Harvest is ripe
For the picking, but the labourers are few
God is waiting! Who will raise their hand
And say, I will Go! Here I am!
Lord, send me!
Let me Go and preach the Gospel
And set the captives free
Let me go and heal the sick and open the
Eyes of the blind
Let me go and testify, that You, God
Can do in other people's lives
What you have done in mine
Move me, shake me, and wake me up
Transform me; break me,
And allow me to come undone
Humble me, shape me and
Prepare me to get out there and go!
To share the gospel and its life
Changing truth
Let me declare to a dying world
That JESUS is their Hope
There's no more time to sit on a pew
There's a dark world out there waiting
To see the light of Jesus within me and you
The harvest is plentiful.God needs more
Labourers, instead of just the few
