They brought you into the night
as I was born in the light
They caught you with chains of sin
as I saw my life begin

But now the blind teach to see
and the captives how to be free
And now the poor teach to give,
I pray your death teach my how to live
When will we conceive love,
and when will we heed what He calls us to?

The Lord called you and you heard,
believed and you showed the world
They tried to keep light at bay,
you witnessed you life away

But now the blind teach to see
and the captives how to be free
And now the poor teach to give,
I pray your death teach my how to live
When will you conceive love,
and when will we heed what He calls us to?

The Lord gave me everything yet so many times I fall
When He gave you hardship you chose to die for His call
For ever and ever towards your faith I'll strive
To be His servant and to answer His call with my life
Forever and ever, forever and ever...

I wish that I could be true,
and have the courage to do as you
and be a witness of Him,
who broke my chain and who died for my sin
Then will we conceive love,
then will we receive what He calls us to.
