What Can Be Done?

What can be done
For the murderous race we’ve become
What have we done
Hands drip with fellow man’s blood
Why do you wait?
Come quickly Lord and change us!
Make us different, Make us different
Make us instruments of peace
to play at your door
No more murder.

Turn out hateful hearts toward love
Let Your mercy cover us
Give us humble hearts O God
The grace to love as you have loved

To love enemies
and our neighbors as you’ve said
What can be done?
What have we done?

Babies unborn silent screams
Electric chairs and M-sixteens
Our hurtful, hateful words,
Our jealousy, our selfish greed
Make us peacemakers, not murderers
Make us peacemakers, not murderers

What can be done? (Lay down your guns)
What have we done? (Lay down your words)
What can be done? (Lay down your thoughts)
What have we done? (Lift up your hearts)

Make us different, Make us different

-CD, BF, JB
