sierra carson - the calling lyrics

[verse 1]
i see the news and hear the stories of a broken world at war
i see the faces of the fallen and the ones we’re fighting for
i look for light from the christians
but they’re somehow focused more on who is
right, on red and blue, on black and white

[verse 2]
i see the streets, hear the calling of a people who’ve been hurt
by the system, by the silence, and so many by the church
and i can’t speak for everybody but i apologize for losing sight
and to the ones still fighting i ask

[chorus]
if you hear god, why can’t i?
and if you lovе thy neighbor, why let your brothers diе?
i’ve seen enough, my heart is heavy, but i know he hears my cry
i don’t have all the answers but i will always try to shed his light
god so loved this world, and so will i

[verse 3]
there’s a mural on a building that reads love unites us all
but someone felt the need change it, writing hate speech on the wall
since when was love controversial?
i’m no saint and i’m not always the most kind
but i want to try
so i ask
[chorus]
if you hear god, why can’t i?
and if you’re pro life, why let innocent children lie
in cages without families?
if i’m honest it’s too much to carry
i need to know why
i need to know why

[bridge]
why the color of my skin determines if i’m safe at night
why the party that i’m backing means i’m good or bad and why
some believers keep believing
in a man who lives a life so unlike christ?
why our country’s so divided?
why we’re letting darkness win before our eyes?
god so loved this world, so we should try
yeah, we should try
to love each other
to do this right
yeah, we should try
oh, we should try
to forget politics for just a moment
and be human for a while
