Jesus Wept
by Legacy Five

Album: Live At Ocean Way

For every ship that sailed
To slavery's distant shores
For every child of poverty
Every unjust death ignored
For the preacher shot in Memphis
Who never saw his dream
For the looters and the shooters
And the sinners just like me
Jesus wept

For every train that led
To the unthinkable
For the heartless and the heinous
Who are unredeemable
For the privileged and the victim
And the addict on the street
The abused and the abuser
Whoever they may be
Jesus wept

And there are times I wonder
If He is weeping still
'Cause, oh, the way He loves
And I know He always will
So, for everything we do
And for everything we've done
For the wounds that scarred our past
For the brokenness to come

For every life that's torn
By hate and violence
For every hurt that we inflict
Out of our own ignorance
For the mockers and believers
And for those without a clue
For the ones who need forgiveness
For we know not what we do
Jesus wept

Jesus wept
Jesus wept
Jesus wept
Jesus wept
