Lord,
Take away my indifference.
I need to see beyond my comfort,
Beyond the miracles and joy of each day.
You cried just because you wanted them
To know peace instead of chaos.
Cried just because they did not see.
Instead of frustration, you cried.
Instead of anger, you cried.
Instead of turning away, you cried.
Tune my heart to your griefs,
And let my tears join with yours.
A duet of intercession.
To break down walls,
Rend the veils over hearts,
And open the eyes of the blind.
That they may know you.
Take away my indifference.
I need to see beyond my comfort,
Beyond the miracles and joy of each day.
You cried just because you wanted them
To know peace instead of chaos.
Cried just because they did not see.
Instead of frustration, you cried.
Instead of anger, you cried.
Instead of turning away, you cried.
Tune my heart to your griefs,
And let my tears join with yours.
A duet of intercession.
To break down walls,
Rend the veils over hearts,
And open the eyes of the blind.
That they may know you.
