if God knows us – v2

how can we kill another
how can we stand in judgment
how can we be silent
in the face of injustice
if God knows us, truly,
if we believe these words of scripture
if we believe God’s promises are true

God said He numbered our days
that He knows the hairs on our head
that He knew us, before the beginning of time
as we were formed in our mother’s womb

how can we act this way
to our sisters, our brothers
how can we be silent
in the face of injustice
if God knows us, truly,
if we believe His promise
if our hope is in God
