Oh, the suffering souls
Crying out for love
In a world that seldom cares
See the hungry hearts
Longing to be filled
Much more than our prayers
And a young girl sells herself
On seventh avenue
And you hear her crying out for help
"My God, what will we do?"
Don't tell them Jesus loves them
Till you're ready to love them too
Till your heart breaks from the sorrow
And the pain they're going through
With a life full of compassion
May we do what we must do
Don't tell them Jesus loves them
Till you're ready to love them too
All the desperate men
Are we reaching for the souls
That are sinking down in sin?
Oh, cry for the church
We've lost our passion for the lost
And there are billions left to win
And another forty thousand children
Starve to death today
Would we risk all we have
To see one of them saved?
Don't tell them Jesus loves them
Till you're ready to love them too
Till your heart breaks from the sorrow
And the pain they're going through
With a life full of compassion
May we do what we must do
Don't tell them Jesus loves them
Till you're ready to love them too
Why have we waited so long
Ah, to show them Jesus lives
To share salvation's song
Why have our hearts become so proud
Oh, that we fail to see
To love them is to love God
And a young girl sells herself
On seventh avenue
Hear her crying out for help
"What will we do?"
Oh, don't tell them Jesus loves them
Till you're ready to love them too
Till your heart breaks from the sorrow
And the pain they're going through
With a life full of compassion
May we do what we must do
Don't tell them Jesus loves them
Till you're ready to love them too
