"Wounded Warrior" (Sept 2008)

I look into your eyes 

I see woundedness and shame 

We are all responsible 

Yet nobody accepts the blame 



We lift up a war cry 

then we turn and attack our own 

The enemy stands laughin 

at the ignorance we have shown 



You look at me so empty 

so afraid to show what you feel inside 

You curse the God whose people hurt you 

All you wanna do is run and hide 



It's time we stop this attack 

stop looking on in jealousy 

When will we stop fighting each other 

and repent in unity 



I look into your eyes again 

There's so much anger, so much shame 

Let Him heal your fatal wounds 

from the church...we are to blame 



We repent for murdering you 

with this sword we call a tongue 

We repent and turn our hearts again 

to the compassion of the Holy One.
