We Can Change The World

Notes from Joel:

It only takes one life to affect another. It's so important to not let the huge task of saving the world land on our shoulders. God does that - for Him it's easy to carry the burden- for us it's another story. But what He does call us to is a life of obedience to Him. That means allowing Him to use us (with the gifts he's given) in the lives of other people. That's what he wants from us. It's not because He needs our help, he is plenty big to do anything on His own, but He wants to mold us when we yield ourselves to His desires. He will do great things through those who are committed to following Him with all that they are, wherever they are. One by one, we can change the world.

Recorded at Coyote Run Studios and released on Wisdom Street (1990).

We Can Change The World

To the salesman in his office tying up another sale
His boss told him to stretch the truth but his conscience will prevail
To the worker in the factory you make the world go 'round
The crew calls you religious but they wonder what you've found
To the student on the campus who lets his faith be known
To the farmer on his knees thanking God for what he's grown

chorus
We can change the world, one by one
We can conquer any fortress with the power of his love
We can change the world, side by side
We will overcome the darkness when we raise our torches high
We can change the world

To the daddy with his little man playing catch out on the grass
He stops to hug his boy and sees the future in his hands
To the lawyer in the courtroom for the voiceless he will fight
He may run into strong winds but he will stand for what is right
To the teacher in the classroom you mold the future minds
For the servant to the homeless trying to dry the tearful eyes

chorus

bridge
Lead the crowd never compromise
Love speaks loud when they see it in your eyes

chorus
