This world's crashing down
With gunfire ringing out
Protests fanning out into the streets
And, here I am resting in comfort and peace
There are childless families
Praying on their knees
While children grow innocently
But, never get the chance to breathe
Sometimes I've got to scream out
"My God, My God, move me!
My Lord, My Strength, use me
As an instrument of Your Spirit's perfect way!
Don't let a chance pass me
Without Your Grace covering my shame!
And, forgive me my sins
In Your Son's Holy name!"
There are stranger's who have nothing
Holding signs out on my street
Don't let me pass them
Without giving myself beyond my means
I've got to ask myself
What have I gained if I've not given love
Why am I so afraid to use my tongue
To spread the love You've given to me
Lord, help me see
Lord, shine Your Light
And, let it radiate out of me
And, hear me as I scream
My God, My God, move me!
My Lord, My Strength, use me
As an instrument of Your Spirit's perfect way!
And, don't let me miss a chance
To ease another persons pain!
And, forgive me my sins
In Your Son's Holy name!
