Surely children weren't made for the streets
And fathers were not made to leave
Surely this isn't how it should be
Let Your kingdom come
Surely nations were not made for war
Or the broken meant to be ignored
Surely this just can't be what You saw
Let Your Kingdom come here in my heart
And I will live to carry Your compassion, to love a world that's broken
To be Your hands and feet
And I will give with the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion to see the world be changed
By the power of Your name
The power of Your name
Surely life wasn't made to regret
And the lost were not made to forget
Surely faith without action is dead
Let Your Kingdom come, lord, break this heart
And I will live to carry Your compassion, to love a world that's broken
To be Your hands and feet
And I will give with the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion to see the world be changed
By the power of Your name
The power of Your name
Jesus, Your name is a shelter for the hurting
Your name is a refuge for the weak
Only Your name can redeem the undeserving
Jesus ,Your name holds everything I need
And I will live to carry Your compassion, to love a world that's broken
To be Your hands and feet
And I will give with the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion to see the world be changed
By the power of Your name
Thinking about the coming up trip to Peru.
I heard this song in church the other week and it was shouting out to my these images from the streets of Peru.
If you read this will you please take the time to pray over these people? Take the time to pray for the nation of Peru-speak life and freedom to these people. I can't believe that this opportunity has been placed in our lap once again. Pray that we, that I won't take this for granted and that every moment will bring His Kingdom in our lives and those around us.
be blessed
