What Are We Doing Here?
Last days, big city
What a place to live
High rise accommodations
Are so executive
Real life, just around the corner
Take a walk around the block
Pass by a family in the alley
Sleeping in a paper box
What are we doing here?
Do we spend our time
Waiting on heaven?
What are we doing here?
Should we pack our bags
The moment we're forgiven?
Oh, there's a world that needs to know
Jesus loves them so
His commission seems quite clear
What are we doing here?
Alright
They say we are pilgrims
Just passing through
Strangers in a strange land
That's me and you
One day we'll be up in glory
Walking on streets of gold
But right now
My feet are on the pavement
And I just want to know
What are we doing here?
Do we spend our time
Waiting on heaven?
What are we doing here?
Should we pack our bags
The moment we're forgiven?
Oh, there's a world that needs to know
Jesus loves them so
His commission seems quite clear
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
Yeah, yeah
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
Oh-whoa
There's a world that needs to know
Jesus loves them so
His commission seems quite clear
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
Somebody tell me
Somebody tell me now
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
Jesus loves them
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
I see a starving brother in a foreign land
(What are we doing here?)
I see a homeless child reaching out his hand
(Jesus loves them)
I see a world so angry, I can feel the rage
(What are we doing here?)
I see a city dying full of crack cocaine
I hear the lions roar, the tires squeal
(What are we doing here?)
A generation saying what is real
(Jesus loves them)
If we know the truth, yeah, if we know the way
(What are we doing here?)
There ought to be something we can do or say
We need to make a stand, take a walk
(What are we doing here?)
Win this city, do it block by block
(Jesus loves them)
Stand up tall and preach it without fear
(What are we doing here?)
If we won't do it
Then what are we doing here?
