Jesus commands us to go
But we go the other way
So He carries the burden alone
While His children are busy at play
Feeling so called to stay
Oh, how God grieves and believes
That the world can't be saved unless the ones He's appointed
obeys His command and His stand for the world
That He loved more than life, oh He died, and He cries out tonight
Jesus commands us to go
It should be the exception if we stay
It's no wonder we're moving so slow When His church refuse to obey
Feeling so called to stay
Oh how God comes as He starts the great judgment of fire
So He can gain, His greatest desire 'Cause He knows that the souls of the lost
They can only be reached through us, we're His hands and His feet
Jesus commands us to go
It should be the exception if we stay
It's no wonder we're moving so slow
When God's children refuse to obey Feeling so called to stay
But we go the other way
So He carries the burden alone
While His children are busy at play
Feeling so called to stay
Oh, how God grieves and believes
That the world can't be saved unless the ones He's appointed
obeys His command and His stand for the world
That He loved more than life, oh He died, and He cries out tonight
Jesus commands us to go
It should be the exception if we stay
It's no wonder we're moving so slow When His church refuse to obey
Feeling so called to stay
Oh how God comes as He starts the great judgment of fire
So He can gain, His greatest desire 'Cause He knows that the souls of the lost
They can only be reached through us, we're His hands and His feet
Jesus commands us to go
It should be the exception if we stay
It's no wonder we're moving so slow
When God's children refuse to obey Feeling so called to stay

While growing as a Christian I was really impressed by the music and writings of Keith Green. His straightforward blunt messages are very much needed, instead of the pop messages we are hearing. Obeying God is costly business
That's why some religions require you to go door to door trying to spread the Word of scripture... So I'm never rude to them.
