Let Your Heart Be Broken
1 John 3:17

Let your heart be broken,
For a world in need,
Feed the mouths that hunger,
Soothe the wounds that bleed.
Give the cup of water,
And the loaf of bread.
Be the hands of Jesus,
Serving in His stead.

Here on earth applying,
Principles of love,

Visible expression,
God still rules above,
Living illustration,
Of the Living Word,
To the minds of all who’ve
Never seen and heard.

Blest to be a blessing,
Privileged to care,
Challenged by the need apparent everywhere.
Where the world is wanting,
Fill the vacant place,
Be the means through which the Lord
Reveals His grace.

Add to your believing,
Deeds that prove it true,
Knowing Christ as Savior,
Make Him Master, too,
Follow in His footsteps,
Go where He has trod,
In the world’s great trouble,
Risk yourself for God.

Let your heart be tender,
And your vision clear,
See the world as God sees,
Serve Him far and near,
Let Your heart be broken,
By another’s pain,
Share your rich resources,
Give and give, again.
Give and give, again.
Let your heart be broken…
