Northbound - Faith in the Western World

Children starving in the night
Don't have the strength to stay alive
And the refugees can't stand and fight
They've got to run just to survive

People hear about it on the TV
Between the latest baseball score
Walk by a family trapped in poverty
Seems so easy to ignore

We're great believers here in the Western world
We've got faith healers here in the Western world
We're great receivers here in the Western world
We can name it, claim it, but it's oh so hard just to give it away

Terror prowling in the night, spilling the blood of innocents
A little girl, her eyes shut tight, her body used by cruel men
To the least of these, as unto me
So we've heard a thousand times
But it's more than hearing, time for doing, time for caring
Left the church of God arise

We're great believers here in the Western world
We've got faith healers here in the Western world
We're great receivers here in the Western world
We can name it, claim it, but it's oh so hard just to give it away
