Thousand Tears by The Walter Eugenes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Have you walked your neighborhood
And told the kids you understood
You say you care, but what do you do
What do you do, Lord
You see their lonesome lives
The heartache in their eyes
You say you care and let them die, oh
[Chorus 1]
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Let me see the need of millions
And hear their cry, oh
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Brother die
[Verse 2]
Have you met the widow's need
The children and their feed
If you're looking for pure religion
I say it's love, I say it's love, Lord
Show the ones you see
The love he's shown for me
You say you care
Then won't you meet their need, yeah
[Chorus 2]
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Let me see the need of millions
And hear their cry, oh
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Brother die
Lead me, words I pray
Let me tell them
[Bridge]
I've turned away too long
And I've wrestled with my fears
And though I've never acted
I've cried a thousand tears, yeah
I've cried a thousand tears
I've cried
I've cried a thousand tears
[Outro]
Don't let me see my brother die
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die, die
Lead me, words I pray
Let me tell them
Have you walked your neighborhood
And told the kids you understood
You say you care, but what do you do
What do you do, Lord
You see their lonesome lives
The heartache in their eyes
You say you care and let them die, oh
[Chorus 1]
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Let me see the need of millions
And hear their cry, oh
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Brother die
[Verse 2]
Have you met the widow's need
The children and their feed
If you're looking for pure religion
I say it's love, I say it's love, Lord
Show the ones you see
The love he's shown for me
You say you care
Then won't you meet their need, yeah
[Chorus 2]
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Let me see the need of millions
And hear their cry, oh
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die
Brother die
Lead me, words I pray
Let me tell them
[Bridge]
I've turned away too long
And I've wrestled with my fears
And though I've never acted
I've cried a thousand tears, yeah
I've cried a thousand tears
I've cried
I've cried a thousand tears
[Outro]
Don't let me see my brother die
Give me a burden, Lord
Don't let me see my brother die, die
Lead me, words I pray
Let me tell them
