I Refuse (Reimagined)
Sometimes I
I just wanna close my eyes
And act like everyone's alright
When I know they're not
This world needs God
But it's easier to stand and watch
I could say a prayer and just move on
Like nothing's wrong
But I refuse
'Cause I don't wanna live like I don't care
I don't wanna say another empty prayer
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose
Not to move
But I refuse
I can hear the least of these
Cryin' out so desperately
And I know we are the hands and feet
Of You, oh God
So if You say move
It's time for me to follow through
And do what I was made to do
And show them who You are
'Cause I don't wanna live like I don't care
I don't wanna say another empty prayer
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose
Not to move
But I refuse
To stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
I refuse to turn my back and try to act like all is well
I refuse to stay unchanged and wait another day to die to myself
I refuse to make one more excuse
I don't wanna live like I don't care
I don't wanna say another empty prayer
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose
Not to move
But I refuse
I refuse
Will you refuse?
I just wanna close my eyes
And act like everyone's alright
When I know they're not
This world needs God
But it's easier to stand and watch
I could say a prayer and just move on
Like nothing's wrong
But I refuse
'Cause I don't wanna live like I don't care
I don't wanna say another empty prayer
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose
Not to move
But I refuse
I can hear the least of these
Cryin' out so desperately
And I know we are the hands and feet
Of You, oh God
So if You say move
It's time for me to follow through
And do what I was made to do
And show them who You are
'Cause I don't wanna live like I don't care
I don't wanna say another empty prayer
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose
Not to move
But I refuse
To stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
I refuse to turn my back and try to act like all is well
I refuse to stay unchanged and wait another day to die to myself
I refuse to make one more excuse
I don't wanna live like I don't care
I don't wanna say another empty prayer
I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose
Not to move
But I refuse
I refuse
Will you refuse?
