Teach Me to Care

I passed her on the street Thought she was ok A stranger full of needs And spiritual decay And now she's crying out for love In a world full of rejection Reality is a disease No one will show affection Lord teach me to care Lord I want to know How to show them you love them To see the needs of those Who've lost their way And when all hope is gone May your faithfulness be strong Oh this is my prayer Teach me to care About to draw the line To take away his life A family torn apart From bitterness and strife And yet he never shows the scars He is popular and strong Each day an arm's length away But he's waited far too long Oh there must be a way Lord I want to know How to show them you love them To see the needs of those Who've lost their way And when all hope is gone May your faithfulness be strong Oh this is my prayer Teach me to care
