I saw an old friend just the other day, he didn't have much to say I could see that fire down inside, somehow died He told me nothing's like it used to be, and I could clearly see His faith was fading more and more, so help me Lord I could see that longing in his eyes For the love of Christ, so I said I can see now, that things are changing, you're not the same And I can't stand here and watch you fall So take my hand and let's walk together, I'll be your brother And show you just how much He cares for you Do you have a friend that used to know Him, now living in sin Do you think they'll find their way back home, on their own
We can't afford to ignore their cries, we're running out of time We need to think about the way Christ loves us You know that Jesus loves them too It's up to me and you Two, close, intertwined beings once joined together Now separated by desires by one or the other And with one so perfect, I dare not begin to deny The fact that there is only one guilty and that is I One might ask themselves the question of fact vs. fiction The underlying question of how to use your soul to listen And it's my mission to see my homies come back The truth that got them this far might get them on the right track
