Intro
Its so easy to lose the burdentake our eyes of the fields
Settle into apathy and forget what the harvest yields
Its so easy to think were finished with our labor for awhile
Kick back and let somebody else go the extra mile
Jesus said gointo all the world, make disciples of all men
We gotta goto the highways, compel them to come in
Chorus
As long as theres a tearful eye that cries alone at night
[G/f#]
As long as theres a weary soul ready to end the fight
[G/f#]
As long as theres an aching heart that still has strength to beat
We gotta take this message
Back to the street
We gotta take this message
Back to the street
Its so easy to stay untangled with everyone elses life
Dont get involved with strangersdont get involved with strife
Its so easy to save your own liferesting on what youve done
But Jesus would leave the ninety-nineto try to save the one
Its not easy to beat the systemits not easy to face the heat
But somebodys got to take this message
Back to the street
As long as theres a tearful eye that cries alone at night
[G/f#]
As long as theres a weary soul ready to end the fight
[G/f#]
As long as theres an aching heart that still has strength to beat
We gotta take this message
Back to the street
We gotta take this message
Back to the street
