The sun is goin' down,
Here in our little town.
We're loved by the people we know.
But walkin' the streets at night,
Shadowed by flickered light,
Are captives with no place to go.
Faces filled with fear,
Eyes holdin' back the tears,
They need someone to know how they feel.
And already someone does,
Who wants them to know His love through us,
They can see that He's real.

chorus:
And everyone knows
Things are not all right,
That's why the whole world
Looks to find a sensitive heart.
So few to be found
And so many in need,
We've gotta pray to have a sensitive heart,
A sensitive heart.

Some who are all alone,
Some who don't have a home,
Many have suffered for years.
Those who have lost a love,
Caught in the push and shove,
With mem'ries of those who were dear.
The ones who are growing old,
Children huddling in the cold
Living on what they can steal.
And some say they're fine,
They've got plenty of time,
But they're just so numb they can't feel.

(chorus)

Yea, yea.
Sure it really looks rough.
And I don't think that it's soon gonna let up.
But be of good courage,
And the Lord's grace will be enough.
Then go,
Through you He'll reach out
When hurting people cry out.

And everyone knows
Things are not all right,
That's why the whole world
Looks to find a sensitive heart.
So few to be found,
And so many in need,
And we've gotta pray to have a sensitive heart,
A sensitive heart.

And everyone knows
Things are not all right,
That's why the whole world
Looks to find a sensitive heart.
And I don't know
When the Lord's gonna come,
But until He does we need a sensitive heart.
