I Don't Want To Live Like I Don't Care...

I have fallen in love with a new song by Josh Wilson. It's so good, I just have to post the lyrics:

I Refuse
By: Josh Wilson
Sometimes I,
I just want to close my eyes,
And act like everyone's alright,
When I know they're not.
This world needs God,
But it's easier to stand and watch,
I could pray a prayer and just move on,
Like nothing's wrong.
But I refuse
'Cause I don't want to live like I don't care,
I don't want to say another empty prayer,
Oh, I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else,
To do what God has called me to do myself,
Oh, I could choose,
Not to move, but I refuse.
I can hear the least of these,
Crying out so desparately,
And I know we are the hands and feet,
Of you, Oh God.
So, if you say move,
Then it's time for me to follow through,
And do what I was meant to do,
Show them who you are!
'Cause I don't want to live like I don't care,
I don't want to say another empty prayer,
Oh I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else,
To do what God has called me to do myself,
Oh, I could choose
Not to move, but I refuse...
To stand and watch
The weary and lost,
Cry out for help.
I refuse,
To turn my back,
And try and act,
Like all is well.
I refuse,
To stay unchanged,
To wait another day,
To die to myself.
I refuse,
To make one more excuse.
Cause I don't want to live like I don't care,
I don't want to say another empty prayer.
Oh, I refuse to
Sit around and wait for someone else,
To do what God has called me to do myself,
Oh, I could choose,
Not to move, but I refuse!
Man, it's a HUGE challenge...but I think it's something we need to be challenged for!
I really have nothing else to say for now. The song pretty much says it all!
So God bless you each and every one!
