      WHEN WILL WE REALIZE...PEOPLE NEED THE LORD? 
 
WE ARE CALLED TO TAKE HIS LIGHT TO A WORLD WHERE WRONG SEEMS RIGHT. 

WHAT WOULD BE TOO GREAT A COST FOR SHARING LIFE WITH ONE WHO'S LOST. 

THOROUGH HIS LOVE OUR HEARTS CAN FEEL ALL THE GRIEF THEY BEAR. 

THEY MUST HEAR THE WORDS OF LIFE ONLY WE CAN SHARE.
