Based on Matthew 28:19, 22:9 |
|
It's so easy to lose the burden - |
|
Take our eyes off the fields |
|
Settle into apathy and forget what the harvest yields |
|
It's so easy to think we're finished with our labor for awhile |
|
Kick back and let somebody else go the extra mile (Chorus) |
|
Jesus said |
|
Go (Go!) into all the world |
|
Make disciples of all men |
|
We gotta Go (Go!) to the highways and compel them to come in |
|
As long as there's a tearful eye that cries alone at night |
|
As long as there's a weary soul ready to end the fight |
|
As long as there's an aching heart that still has strength to beat |
|
We gotta take this message back to the street |
|
We gotta take this message back to the street |
|
It's so easy to stay untangled in everyone else's life |
|
Don't get involved with strangers - don't get involved with strife |
|
It's so easy to save your own life - resting on what you've done |
|
But Jesus would leave the ninety nine to try to save the one |
|
It's not easy to beat the system |
|
It's not easy to face the heat |
|
But somebody's got to take this message |
|
Back to the street |
