Sometimes I, I just want to close my eyes
And act like everyone’s alright when I know they’re not
This world needs God, but it’s easier to stand and watch
I can say a prayer and just move on like nothing’s wrong
But I refuse
‘Cause I don’t want to live like I don’t care
I don’t want to say another empty prayer
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose not to move
But I refuse
I can hear the least of these crying out so desperately
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
So if You say move it’s time for me to follow through
And do what I was made to do and show them who You are
To stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
I refuse
To turn my back and try and act like all is well
I refuse
To stay unchanged, to wait another day, to die to myself
I refuse
To make one more excuse
