Outside These Walls

Within these walls

We join our hearts

We come together

To be set apart


But worshipping on Sunday

Is just a place to hide

If we can't face on Monday

The dying world outside


Do the crying know we care?

Do the lonely find us there?

Are we so involved

We do not hear their call?


Everywhere men are searching

They're wondering why they're hurting

Do they see the love of Jesus at all

Outside these walls?


Within our hearts

He planted a seed

A love we can count on

For all that we need


But safe in our seclusion

How can we grow

When outside these walls

There are fields we need to sow


Do the crying know we care?

Do the lonely find us there?

Are we so involved

We do not hear their call?


Everywhere men are searching

They're wondering why they're hurting

Do they see the love of Jesus at all

Outside these walls?


Lord, through our lives

Please let others see

Your love reflecting

Through us perfectly


And let the crying know we care

Let the lonely find us there

Don't be so involved

We do not hear their call?


Everywhere men are searching

They're wondering why they're hurting

Let them see the love of Jesus in our souls

Outside these walls
