All my days and my nights
Can't stop thinking of their lives
Is there a way I can escape
Move past the stillness in each day
My heart is afraid
For the gangs and the pains
Of a life marked with sorrow
Striving to make it to tomorrow
I cannot stand still with my heart
In the grips of the chains
On the hands and the feet of the gangs
I am seeking a new tomorrow
To see Chicago
To share Christ with the lowly
the hurting, the broken
To share Christ with the rigid
the angered, the tormented
To share Christ with a diverse culture
Marked by the world
Each so different yet so similar
For they yearn for a greater love
I will wait on the Lord
Patiently wait for His Word
If He's calling me to this people
Who need to enter beneath His steeple
Oh Lord my heart is burdened
What am I to do?
Make your love burn bright
In the soles of their shoes
That a pathway of light
may mark the streets in the night
This is beautiful. What a gift! The cry of your heart is beautiful.
