The Wounded Lyrics by Jerome Olds

Eyes of a Common Man

(Spoken Intro):
Dad
What do you think's wrong with that guy?
I don't know, son
I guess he's homeless
Well... well, is anyone gonna help him?
I don't know
Well, somebody needs to
I know, son, I know
Are we gonna help him?
Come on, son
Hey, mister, you need a friend
No, thanks
Come on, son
Who was that?
Just a mix-up young girl
There's a young girl on the street
Falls in love with who she meets
Will we go help her?
Or will we just wait and see?
There's an old man down the road
Seems the bottle has taken his soul
Reach out and touch him
Show him the Jesus you know
What will we do with the wounded?
Can we hear thеir despairing cries?
What would we do
If thе wounded were you and I?
What would we want them to do?
Homeless children everywhere
Entire families that just don't care
Christ can provide a home
Through you and me
You know we have to spend more time
On the problem of drugs and crime
Throwing our money
At the children won't do this time
What will we do with the wounded?
Can we hear their despairing cries?
What would we do
If the wounded were you and I?
What would we want them to do?
(Go) where there's sickness and strife
(Go) where they're still clinging to life
(Go) Jesus is all, He's already there
You want to see Jesus?
Go where there's hunger and pain
(See Jesus)
Go where it still hasn't rained
(See Jesus)
You'll always find Him there
He's where the hurt is
You want to see Jesus?
Go where they're sick and they're ill
(See Jesus)
Go where the earth won't stand still
(See Jesus)
You can find Him
You can find Him
You'll find Him there
(Go into all the land, see Jesus)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Take Jesus to the prominent land)
Keep sharing the Savior
(Go into your neighborhood, see Jesus)
Oh-oh, got to do some good, do some good
(Hold the hurting family, share some good)
Love is the language
(Go into all nation, see Jesus)
Take it, take it to the world
(See Jesus)
(Revolution to God's revelation)
Yeah
(Revelation)
(Go into all the land, see Jesus)
Whoa-whoa, I can see Him
I see Jesus
(See Jesus)
(Tell the world that's Jesus, understand)
I wanna tell them, tell them about joy
(See Jesus)
And the peace and the understanding
(See Jesus)
Oh-whoa...
(See Jesus)
Go and tell, tell the world
(He's where the hurt is)
