Savior
by Michael English

Album: Hope

Katy can't remember where she spent last night
But it must have been some party, that's for sure
'Cause waking up this morning, her head feels like a stone
Oh and she's been here too many times before
One thing just leads to another
One more goodbye to a one-night lover
One more day surviving on her own

She needs a Savior
Oh, but who's gonna tell her?
Who's gonna let her close enough?
She needs a Savior
Oh, but who's gonna teach her?
Who's gonna reach her with the Father's love?

Johnny sleeps in a gutter in a cardboard box hotel
That's a long, long way from your easy chair
You can't call him a loser, 'cause he's nothing left to lose
And he doesn't understand the words "I care"

Still he's a child of God's creation
Caught in a hell of desolation
Nowhere to run, nowhere to turn

He needs a Savior
Oh, but who's gonna tell him?
Who's gonna let him get close enough?
He needs a Savior
Oh, but who's gonna teach him?
Who's gonna reach him with the Father's love?

For compassion knows no separation
No barricades or isolation
When will we open, open up our eyes and truly learn to love?
