A World We Never Touch
He walked along the shores of Galilee
From clay he formed the healing balm that caused the blind to see
While stones of wrath lay heavy in their
hands he knelt to write his mercy in the sand
Jesus came to set the captive free
Showed us by the way he lived the way we need to be
Oh love is more than words could ever say
We must touch them with compassion to help them find their way
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we show them Christ if we never show them love
Just to say we care will never be enough
How can we reach a world we never touch
Could we be so busy being saved
Trying to impress a world thats long since lost its way
We pride ourselves in being set apart but
we don't have time to touch a broken heart
Even if we found the time to care would we
take the risk involved in always being there
We hold the very thing they need so much
Sometimes the word of God can pass through just one simple touch
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we show them Christ if we never show them love
Just to say we care will never be enough
How can we reach a world we never touch
We hide behind these walls and the security of friends
but beyond the stained glass window the world is lost in sin
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we show them Christ if we never show them love
Just to say we care will never be enough
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we reach a world we never touch
From clay he formed the healing balm that caused the blind to see
While stones of wrath lay heavy in their
hands he knelt to write his mercy in the sand
Jesus came to set the captive free
Showed us by the way he lived the way we need to be
Oh love is more than words could ever say
We must touch them with compassion to help them find their way
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we show them Christ if we never show them love
Just to say we care will never be enough
How can we reach a world we never touch
Could we be so busy being saved
Trying to impress a world thats long since lost its way
We pride ourselves in being set apart but
we don't have time to touch a broken heart
Even if we found the time to care would we
take the risk involved in always being there
We hold the very thing they need so much
Sometimes the word of God can pass through just one simple touch
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we show them Christ if we never show them love
Just to say we care will never be enough
How can we reach a world we never touch
We hide behind these walls and the security of friends
but beyond the stained glass window the world is lost in sin
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we show them Christ if we never show them love
Just to say we care will never be enough
How can we reach a world we never touch
How can we reach a world we never touch
