Lyrics:

I was watching and I saw you walking by
Your bones were naked but nobody wondered why
Staring through me hollowed eyes that told the pain
Bruised and broken where your body takes the blame

Your eyes still haunt me as you fall
I'm aching to your silent call
And I would take you in my arms
And bring you life
But I can't give alone

Child of the desert
Where the mother's milk is dry
Child of the burning lands of flame
Where the breath is spent in sighs

Child of the millions
I can hear your cries for healing
Child of the waste and starving land
I would fight where death is stealing

But I'm too weak to share alone
My heart is hardened into stone
My lips are sealed though I would
Comfort and revive
For I can't give alone

I met with a stranger
Who spoke of life and laughter
His name was the Lord of life
And all His people share His love now

I was standing and my eyes they turned to see
Jesus weeping, and His eyes were turned to me
Staring through me loving eyes that told the pain
Bruised and broken where His body took the blame

Your eyes still haunt me as I stand
I'm aching for this silent land
And I would take you to this child
And bring your love
And bring your life
