Oh, the suffering souls Crying out for love In a world that seldom cares See the hungry hearts Longing to be filled Much more than our prayers And a young girl sells herself On Seventh Avenue And you hear her crying out for help "My God, what will we do?" Don't tell them Jesus loves them Till you're ready to love them too Till your heart breaks from the sorrow And the pain they're going through With a life full of compa**ion May we do what we must do Don't tell them Jesus loves them Till you're ready to love them too All the desperate men Are we reaching for the souls That are sinking down in sin? Oh, cry for the church We've lost our pa**ion for the lost And there are billions left to win And another forty thousand children Starve to d**h today Would we risk all we have To see one of them saved?
Don't tell them Jesus loves them Till you're ready to love them too Till your heart breaks from the sorrow And the pain they're going through With a life full of compa**ion May we do what we must do Don't tell them Jesus loves them Till you're ready to love them too Why have we waited so long Ah, to show them Jesus lives To share salvation's song Why have our hearts become so proud Oh, that we fail to see To love them is to love God And a young girl sells herself On Seventh Avenue Hear her crying out for help "What will we do?" Oh, don't tell them Jesus loves them Till you're ready to love them too Till your heart breaks from the sorrow And the pain they're going through With a life full of compa**ion May we do what we must do Don't tell them Jesus loves them Till you're ready to love them too
