Do You Want To Know? by Josh Wilson
If you want a heart of sympathy
Then pray to God to help you, please
See the world that Jesus sees
Yeah
But be careful what you ask Him for
Cause if you�re gonna open up that door
There�s no going back to before
Cause once you see a mother who can�t feed
The baby that cries in her arms
Your heart will break and you�ll lay awake
No, sleep won�t come quick anymore
So do you want to know?
You pass him on the way to work
He holds a sign beside the curb
You look away and avoid the hurt
Cause why should you be held responsible
Besides, he�ll probably just spend it all
On cigarettes and alcohol
But once you see that the man on the street
Has a name and a family like you
Your heart will break and you�ll lay awake
Cause you�ll understand God loves him, too
So do you want to know?
Oh, no
If you want a heart of sympathy
Then pray to God to help you see
But once you see a world that�s in need
And a sorrow you just can�t ignore
Your heart�s gonna break and you�ll lay awake
Cause you�ll know you could do so much more
Do you want to know?
