Saw it in the news today
Images that froze me on my way
Something deep within was stirred
A feeling that was lost I'd left unturned
Your love and compassion for the lost
Your peace that floods the innermost
Your strength to raise a helping hand
Your heart that brings healing to the land
May I see it through Your eyes
See each person as a valued prize
Take me from the comforts that I hold
It won't take a tragedy for me to show
Your love and compassion for the lost
Your peace that floods the innermost
Your strength to raise a helping hand
Your heart that brings healing to the land
I don't wanna turn the other way
There's an urgency I know
Your heart goes out to them each and every day
You're calling for the church to rise and show
Your love and compassion for the lost
Your peace that floods the innermost
Your strength to raise a helping hand
Your heart that brings healing to the land
