I sit here in my comfortable room
I wonder if you’re okay
As you show the Way
Sewing, digging wells, teaching, living life far away
You choose the road less traveled
To bring Light to the dark
One day at time, one heart at a time
People’s lives are changed
Priorities rearranged
Because by faith, hope, and love
You have made yourself available to plans
Bigger than any guidance counselor could offer
As I think of you and pray
My comfortable room becomes less
My heart more restless
My mind races to possibilities
I gotta do something
All around me is hopelessness
I don’t have to go very far
Dressed fine and in a nice car
Or in rags, scruffy, with old shoes
Are those who need someone
One day at time, One heart at a time
To care enough to offer faith, hope, and love
As I think of them and pray
My comfortable room becomes less
My heart more restless
My mind races to possibilities
I gotta be something to do something
Jesus help me be more like You
So that I can see people like You
And do that for which I’m made
Giving away faith, hope, and love
To a world tired of hearing about another
Loaded cup of red Kool-Aid I think of You and pray
Comfort has lost its appeal
My heart is pounding
My mind’s about to blow
No more sitting around
Here I go…
