Deep in the Calcutta night
Hope barely gives off its light
Heartache and hunger are roaming the streets
Where children have nothing to eat
Millions are lost everyday
Sickness and death have their way
Yet there in the shadows a flame is alive
A fire that darkness can’t hide
Mother Teresa is there
Caring when nobody cares
Loving like Jesus she conquers despair
Jesus is using her there
There in the sorrow and fear
Her hope and compassion appear
None are rejected, none are despised
She sees the world through His eyes
Heaven comes down from above
As she speaks the language of love
Gently she listens when helpless ones call
She is a servant of all
Mother Teresa is there
Caring when nobody cares
Loving like Jesus she conquers despair
Mother Teresa
Jesus is using you there
