Album: The Door
You can see him every night
Playing for the screaming mobs
That comes to see him
On and on, it just keeps going
More money and more fame
Is all that's needed
But the war down deep inside him
Rages on in spite of all the things
That are suppose to make a happy life
All the money and the fame
Can't take away the hunger in his eyes.
There's a boy in some big city
Living on the streets and always on the run
Stealing money from a local store
To buy the drugs he needs to keep going on.
In the wastedness of his young mind
And all the fighting and the crime
There's an emptiness that just can't be ignored.
Well, there's nothing in this world
That can take away the hunger in his eyes
There's millions just like them
Scattered all across this cruel and lonely world
And the only thing that can take away the hunger
Happened oh so many years ago
On a lonely hill called Calvary
Stood a cross whose shadow falls across forever
And on that cross there was a man
Innocent but dying for all others
Through all the pain and agony
Down through the ages he could see
The multitude of people and their faces
He had come into a dying world
to take away the hunger in their eyes
Friend, Jesus is the only one
to take away the hunger in your eyes
