Missions song with a slight jazz feel.
Words alone won't solve a problem. It also takes action. We need to back up our words with works in order to see things accomplished. This song shows that we need to do something in order to reach out to those less fortunate and in need.
Send Them Your Love
Verse 1
All of the sudden I am aware
Some people around me don't seem to care
The world passes by them, they don't even blink
The children are dying, what do they think
I want to help them but what can I do...
Send them my love
Verse 2
I see the children so far away
They don't understand who left them that way
They're hungry and thirsty, full of disease
Begging for food, they're down on their knees
I want to help them, but what can I do...
Send them my love
Chorus
What good does it do if we say to them
Depart in peace, be warmed and filled
If we do not give the things which they need
We hold the cures, and then watch them bleed
You ask what to do, well, I say...
Send them your love
Verse 3
Sweet words of comfort won't wipe away tears
They won't hold the hand of a child in fear
If we really love them as we do ourselves
Then why don't we share some of the food on our shelves
Jesus once gave all He had for our lives...
He sent us His love
