I’ve sat by far too long And I’ve watched the hurting suffer on their own I have chances everyday To live like you, die to myself Give your love away And I wonder why I feel so empty inside
While I sing la la la la la la la la la As the hungry roam the streets La la la la la la la la la As the broken are on their knees La la la la la la la la la I keep singing
We are frozen, we are still But we’re called to be a city on a hill And as our melodies resound We cannot hear the silent cry This world is screaming out And we wonder why we feel so empty inside
While we sing la la la la la la la la la As the hungry roam the streets La la la la la la la la la As the broken are on their knees La la la la la la la la la We keep singing
Remember salvation’s day When jesus washed our sins away The lost are crying out to be saved
While we sing la la la la la la la la la As the hungry roam the streets La la la la la la la la la As the broken are on their knees La la la la la la la la la We keep singing But just a song won't heal The bleeding wound Church wake up We’re sleeping in an empty tomb
Church arise, arise and shine Shake yourself from the dust God is calling us to go
