what would jesus do

they stopped saying prayers in school yesterday

and there's a boarded up

run down church

down on third and main

the mission's overflowing

and the crime rate just keeps growing

and i'm not sure where it's gonna stop

but man

this world is all we got

what would jesus do in time like these?

would he walk among the sinners

fall to his knees?

heal the sick

save lost souls the way he used to?

would he threw up his hands and just walk away?

cry a tear for a world that's gone astray

i'm not sure

but god

i wish i knew

what would jesus do?

what if he appeared right where you stand?

could you look him in the eye

reach out and take his hand?

show him how we are changing this place

day by day with his amazing grace?

it doesn't look like heaven on earth

so i have to ask

are we doing right?

what would jesus do in time like these?

would he walk among the sinners

fall to his knees?

heal the sick

save lost souls the way he used to?

would he threw up his hands and just walk away?

cry a tear for a world that's gone astray

i'm not sure

but god

i wish i knew

what would jesus do?

would he threw up his hands just walk away?

cry a tear for a world that's gone astray

i'm not sure

but god

i wish i knew

what would jesus do?

what would jesus do?
