Don't Tell Them Jesus Loves Them

Oh suffering soul, crying out for love

In a world that seldom cares;

See the hungry heart longing to be filled

Much more than our prayers,

And a young girl sells herself on Seventh Avenue

And you hear her crying out for help,

"My God, what will we do?"

Don't tell them Jesus loves them

Till you're ready to love them too,

Till your heart breaks from the sorrow

And the pain they're going through

With a life full of compassion

May we do what we must do,

Don't tell them Jesus loves them

Till you're ready to love them too

Oh, the desperate man

Are we reaching for the souls

That are sinking down in sin?

Oh, cry for the child

We've lost our passion for the lost

And there are billions left to win

And another forty thousand children starve to death today,

Would we risk all we have to see which of them say:

Why have we waited so long to show them Jesus lives

To share salvation's song?

Why have our hearts become so proud that we fail to see

To love them is to love God?

And a young girl sells herself on Seventh Avenue

Hear her crying out for help,

"What will we do?"
