from Words To The Song


"Compassion"

Set me free from the numbness
Let me be completely awake
Call me out of this culture of apathy
Give me a heart that's willing to break

Chorus:  Compassion, Compassion, yeah
            I want to feel the things that cause you pain
            Compassion, yeah

I want to hear your story
I want your tears to fall on me
I want to know the reasons why you cry
I want to be moved by your history

Chorus:

Bridge:  God break my heart with the things that break your heart (repeat)
            I want to weep with those who weep
            Rejoice with those who rejoice
            I want to suffer with those who suffer
            I want to suffer with, suffer with

Chorus:

I want to be more like Jesus
Someone moved by other's pain
I want to do whatever I can do
To give this world the Savior's embrace of...

Chorus:
