Some talk loud enough for all
The rest seem content in letting few speak for many

Consider we're letting bullhorns preach "God hates" and "Jesus condemns"
Yet we lack the spines to share the truth

Some are brave enough to die
The rest of us seem to lack the loins to face a threat

Some are bold enough to tell
The rest seem to think silence speaks louder than their lives

Considering we're the one's who are told take this to the world
You'd think in our homes we'd find it easy

Considering I'm the one who claims to know Jesus' love
How do I...

Who do I love,
If I, sure of hell, can't love them enough
To trade my comfort for their lives?

Considering we're the one's who are told take this to the world
You'd think to our friends we'd find it easy

Considering you're the one who claims to love as Jesus does...
Well do you?

Who do you love?
'Cause you sure as hell don't love them enough
If you can't risk all for their life

And trust me
On the day they return to the dust
You face a horrid good-bye

So tell me you'll break your boundaries
Convice me to do the same
We've nothing to fear but the fact that we may be out of time

So tell me you'll break your boundaries
Convice me to do the same
We've nothing to fear but the fact that we may be out of time

We've nothing to fear but the chance that they may be out of time

It's an incredible truth, though cynical.

I love the lyrics.

Are these your opinions? Or are they purely for entertainment purposes?

How long did it take you to write this?

[PapalMuse]

Thank you.

Yes, these are my opinions. If I was writing purely for entertainment, I surely wouldn't have written this!

A friend of mine preached on Ezekiel 22: 30-31 for our youth group this week. Later that night I began working on this, and did so until about 5:00 the next morning. I wrote the ending later that day (Thursday), and then recorded/posted the video.

I hope someone is challenged by it.

Yes! This is genius! You bring up a lot of good points and I can totally understand the song! I was actually looking for a video on invertebrates for my Biology class and instead I found this. I'm glad I did though! You are simply awesome with the guitar, you have a good voice and you make people think. Great job! :)

The beginning reminds me of Thousand Foot Krutch's "Wish You Well"

[stringsandflute]

Yes I am challenged by it. The Lord was speaking to me heavily about this today. My cousin was diagnosed with cancer this week and he does not know the Lord. God please forgive me for my complacency and help me to be bold and faithful as You want me to be in Jesus name, amen. Thanks for posting the song, may God continue to bless you and use you for His glory.
