Outside My Window
Outside my window
A life is begun,
A woman is weeping,
A battle is won.
Outside my window
The world rushes on
May God touch one more heart
Before they're all gone.

Outside my window
A child is alone,
A daddy is leaving,
A lost dog is home.
Outside my window
The cold rain drops fall
Oh how can one person
Find them all?

Outside my window
A car flips three times,
A first drink is had,
A theif comments crimes.
Outside my window
Is something not mine.
I wish that my light had
The power to shine.

Outside my window
A Grandmother dies,
A man denies God,
A leader tells lies.
Outside my window
Are guns, knives and rope.
I dig through the rubble of
Hate to find hope.

Outside my window
A sick body heals,
A lover brings flowers,
A dead spirit feels.
Outside my window
There are others like me
They aren't moping shlter,
They're outside with the keys.

Outside my window
A step for me to take
A new door is open,
A sleepin soul awake
Outside my window
The world rushes on
May God touch them through me
Before I am gone.
