LORD HOW DO YOU DO IT, I JUST CAN’T UNDERSTAND
HOLD UP WITH ALL THE SORROWS BROUGHT TO YOU BY MORTAL MAN’
SIN AFTER SIN, DAY AFTER DAY, LOSS AFTER LOSS,
YOU EVEN GAVE YOU SON JESUS TO DIE FOR OUR SINS ON A CROSS
NEVER GIVING UP ON A WORLD IN WHICH LOSS SINNERS DOTH ABOUND
YOUR SON DID COME TO A DYING WORLD WHEN HE LAID ASIDE HIS RIGHTFUL CROWN
IN ORDER TO SAVE THE WORST OF THE WORST OF EARTH’S MANKIND
NEVER ONCE DID JESUS CHRIST CONSIDER CROSSING BACK ACROSS THE DIVIDED LINE
FOR OUR WORLD IS DIVIDED BY THE SINS BROUGHT ON BY THE SINFUL NATURE OF MAN
AND THIS PLACE, NOW OUR HOME, IS SO VASTLY DIFFERENT FROM THE PROMISED LAND
THE LINE IS THERE IN THE FOREFRONT WITHIN THE REALM OF OUR REACH
ONCE WE GIVE OUR HEARTS TO OUR SAVIOR FOR HIM TO EVER KEEP
AND THE LINE THAT NOW DIVIDES WILL SOON BE FOREVER ERASED
ALL TEARS WILL BE DRIED UPON SEEING OUR SAVIOUR FACE TO FACE
IN THE SWEET BY AND BY I AM LONGING WITH ALL MY HEART
TO JOIN MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS AROUND THE THRONE OF GOD NEVER AGAIN TO PART
I CAN’T STOP PRAYING NOW LORD, NOT NOW, IT IS THE LEAST I COULD DO
TO SPEAK WITH MY HEART IS THE ONLY WAY I KNOW HOW TO SPEAK TO YOU
EVEN THE WORDS I USE ARE A GIFT WITH WHICH TO OFFER MY KING
FOR I AM SO INEPT TO FIND THE WORDS THAT I AM FEELING DEEP WITHIN
AND I REALLY DON’T KNOW HOW YOU LOVE AS YOU DO
WHEN SO MANY CHOOSE TO REMAIN DISTANT FROM YOU
YOUR ARMS ARE STILL OPENED WIDE TO THE SINNERS ON THIS EARTH
AND I FEAR TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR GOD’S PEOPLE TO DO THE LORD’S WORK
