While We Sing - Leeland

I’ve sat by far too long

And I’ve watched the hurting suffer on their own

I have chances every day

To live like You, die to myself

Give Your love away

And I wonder why I feel so empty inside

While I sing la la la la la la la la la

As the hungry roam the streets

La la la la la la la la la

As the broken are on their knees

La la la la la la la la la

I keep singing

We are frozen, we are still

But we’re called to be a city on a hill

And as our melodies resound

We cannot hear the silent cry

This world is screaming out

And we wonder why we feel so empty inside

While we sing la la la la la la la la la

As the hungry roam the streets

La la la la la la la la la

As the broken are on their knees

La la la la la la la la la

We keep singing

Remember salvation’s day

When Jesus washed our sins away

The lost are crying out to be saved

While we sing la la la la la la la la la

As the hungry roam the streets

La la la la la la la la la

As the broken are on their knees

La la la la la la la la la

We keep singing

But just a song won’t heal

The bleeding wound

Church wake up

We’re sleeping in an empty tomb

Church arise, arise and shine

Shake yourself from the dust

God is calling us to go
