You Can Only Understand Tears If You Cried

As I look around at the world today It seems to be filled with such dismay I know these things have always been But now we've seem to become akin Acts that are shuttered off as no surprise As we learned how to turn down the cries For these are people that I don't even know Besides it's time for my favorite T.V. show It not being my obligation to worry about others Yet Jesus spoke about the least of my brothers And now a days there are so many opportunities If only you open up your heart you'll hear their pleas So to even give but one child who is thirsty a drink Will allow your soul to float and thus it will not sink For when you begin to give food to those who hunger All that Glory from above will within you begin to stir

Words so very true. Nice.. A great offering too! Grab that glory and give to those who need it.. Not for glory sake but for love's sake. Brotherly love....
