"Actions Speak Louder"

Jai:
We are your hands
We are your feet
It's time for us to stand, yeah
'Cause we love you Sudan

Swoope:
If I'm honest I'm tired, hungry, I'm frustrated, all of the above
A little sore from civil war when all I seen was blood
I shed tears heartbroken, all I need is love
I'm drowning fast in my sorrow, all of me is flood
I've seen hurt, seen death, seen slaughter
Now I need some clean water, all I see is mud
It's like nobody out there cares 'cause I seen is shrugs
It's like nobody out there hears 'cause all they ears is plugged
Man I'm feelin' like a lion who's hungry and weak
So it's the mighty God of Zion who humbly I seek
I stumble and weep, with the tears runnin' from cheeks
Each moment I wonder if he will ever so suddenly speak
And I'm confident he will, so I'm confidently still
Deliver me from sickness Lord, conquer what is ill
I still stand and when I'm rescued is his choice
I stand still and know my refuge is his voice

Jai:
We are your hands
We are your feet
It's time for us to stand, yeah
'Cause we love you Sudan
Actions speak louder, louder than words
Put our prayers in motion, let's bring heaven on earth
Let's bring heaven on earth

Tedashii:
God, today another home somebody owned is now a puddle
Why the rain came, I wonder why they wander through the rubble
Why me? Why now? Should I think why not?
Is everything against me to take everything I got?
Someone got out of bed this morning, some got off the floor
Some went off to work this morning, some went off to war
Some ain't have a plate and trashed it just to get some more
But trust me that's not an option in places like Darfur
Vision blurry as the skies cries like my eyes
In despair, cast my cares as I cry to the sky
Never hope in man, though some are willin' they're unable
But I'm the kind who's fine with crumbs from the Master's table
I know the situation hasn't caught you by surprise
In fact it's with faith I choose to walk instead of sight
I know that you love 'em, since the womb you knew 'em
And you never forget so may the grace that drew 'em renew 'em

Lecrae:
I don't have the words to articulate
The way you let me drown in your never-ending grace
How my crimes are covered and washed away in blood
There's nothing in me conditioning you to make you love
I can't attract, impress, or try to win your heart
But you give it all, and you've been involved
And you never change even when I'm wrong
Your love still goes on to make an atonement
Love infinite and unconditional
Nothing can separate us, 'cause now I live in you
There's no amount that can calculate your divine love
It's so much that Christ was given to die for us
It's stronger than death, deeper than the ocean
Bigger than the night sky, the earth could never hold it
And it's not impulsive, it's holy and pure
It's not a weakness or soft, it's sharp as a sword

John Piper:
God in eternity looked upon me, forseeing my faultness, my pride, my sin and said, "I want that man in my family. I will pay for him to be in my family with my Son's life." That's love, folks. That is mega, off-the-charts love..."

Jai:
Actions speak louder, louder than words
Put our prayers in motion, let's bring heaven on earth
Let's bring heaven on earth
