Even with Strangers

What would the world
what would it be like
if we actually shared the news
the great blessing in his word
the holy news of Jesus

If we shared in with the world
not just with our neighbors
if we truly shared the word
even with total strangers

Not hiding our joy
shouting out loud
sharing the joy within our hearts
to all that we meet

Proud to be called children
slaves to the Most High
choosing to turn our lives over to Him
to follow the way of the cross
