Didn't He
From the album "Pray For Rain"
Vireo Records/Sparrow Records SVD 2202
Written by Joel Hanson
Too many hearts
On too many strings
We could cut them down
But instead we let them hang in the breeze
Oh my brother tell me why
And why is my sister down on her knees
Crying out won't somebody love me
And where are we?
Didn't He love them
Didn't He hold out His hand?
Wasn't Jesus a model, an example to man?
Of how we must love everyone in this land
And give 'til it hurts
Isn't that part of the plan?
But we can't see through our religious charade
To take what He's given and give love away
One more night
No place to call home
A torn-up jacked on his back
It's getting pretty cold
Where do I stand, do I reach out my hand?
And one more child's face
On my TV screen
She's dying of hunger
Why can't we meet her need?
And where are we?
Didn't He love them
Didn't He hold out His hand?
Wasn't Jesus a model, an example to man?
Of how we must love everyone in this land
And give 'til it hurts
Isn't that part of the plan?
But we can't see through out holy facade
To do one more thing that we're called to by God
Didn't He love us
Didn't He hold out His hand?
Wasn't Jesus a model, an example to man?
He said love every person
Everyone in this land
And give 'til it hurts
Wasn't that part of the plan?
But we've all been blinded
By out selfish ways
Can we change this pattern
Will we stay the same
Didn't He love them
Didn't He hold out His hand?
Wasn't Jesus a model, an example to man?
Of how we must love everyone in this land
And give 'til it hurts
Isn't that part of the plan?
Didn't He love them
Didn't He hold out His hand?
Wasn't Jesus a model, an example to man?
Of how we must love everyone in this land
And give 'til it hurts
Isn't that part of the plan?
Didn't He love them?
Didn't He love them?
