Weight of the World

The leaves are falling, the temperature is dropping My spirit is stalling, my passion is stopping Who can save me from myself? Who will be there to help? I have fallen down, and the weight of the world is upon me I cannot lift in on my own, for it is far too heavy Who will come and give me a hand Who is strong enough to stand? To carry the human race To experience His grace For too long now, I have been trying But slowly my soul has been dying Because I am not enough on my own I was not designed to go it alone I cannot be a one man army So I ask for those with a heart For a dying and broken world To join me in a new start Does anyone hear a small hungry child? Over the sound of a dinner feast Can anyone hear the roar of a bomber plane? Over the sound of a new car engine Does anyone feel the hurricanes destruction? More than the light breeze of the ceiling fan Do rags and tattered clothes grab your attention? Before you buy a new name brand outfit If you hear and see and feel these things And it is more important to you than your things Then come with me, let’s go to the broken Set the captives free, I am not jokin' Open your eyes and see There is a world full of trouble A world full of hurt So let’s get out of our bubble And jump in the dirt
