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
