We Can Change the World

I always find songs about missions work, or changing the world, or making a difference so impacting. I think it's because my whole life has been devoted to doing just that. As a missions kid, songs like this always tug at my heart strings and give me that extra passion for what I do. I listen to the song and realize that I am doing my part to make the world a better place. It may be small but it is a difference. Even if just one person is impacted that's still one extra life.
There is always something that you can do to change the world. It might not be as huge as stopping world hunger but even if it's just giving five minutes of your time to comfort someone in need or a donating a dollar to your local charity. All of it makes a difference.
What made me want to post about this was I bought the new Hawk Nelson CD a few days ago and there was a song on the CD called "We Can Make a Difference". I really like the song and wanted to share the lyrics with you.

" We Can Make a Difference"
I've seen an orphans heart filled with the Father's love
I've heard the hungry and thirsty say I've had enough
Ya, I've seen hopelessness swallowed up in hope
When all God's people say okay let's go
We can change the world, you and me
We can make a difference if we just believe
When the hands and feet start moving together
We can change the world forever
I've seen the broken one get healed of his disease
Witnessed the beauty of forgiveness save my family
So many cities need revival of the soul
And all God's people say come on here we go, come on here we go
We can change the world, you and me
We can make a difference if we just believe
When the hands and feet start moving together
We can change the world forever
We know what we've gotta do
It's time for us to show the truth
It's up to me, it's up to you
We can change the world, we can change the world
We can change the world, you and me
We can make a difference if we just believe
When the hands and feet start moving together
We can change the world forever
"We Can Change the World"
from the album "Crazy Love" by Hawk Nelson
Aren't those wonderful lyrics? I loved this song the minute I heard it. You should definitely go and listen to it...it's wonderful :)
