D#m7 Bmaj7
It’s so easy to lose the burden——take our eyes of the fields
D#m7 Bmaj7
Settle into apathy and forget what the harvest yields
Fm7 (C#m7)
It’s so easy to think we’re finished with our labor for awhile
(C#m7) N.C.
Kick back and let somebody else go the extra mile
Au* Cu F#m D A/E F#m E A E F#m
Jesus said go——into all the world, make disciples of all men
Au Cu F#m D A E A B C#
We gotta go——to the highways, compel them to come in
CHORUS
F# C# D#m B F# C# D#m
As long as there’s a tearful eye that cries alone at night
F# C# D#m B B/A# C#
As long as there’s a weary soul ready to end the fight
B B/A# C# G#m7 F#/A# B
As long as there’s an aching heart that still has strength to beat
F# C# D#m B
We gotta take this message
A E F#m E F#m E
Back to the street
A E F#m D A
We gotta take this message
E F#m
Back to the street
D#m Bmaj7
It’s so easy to stay untangled with everyone else’s life
D#m Bmaj7
Don’t get involved with strangers——don’t get involved with strife
C#maj7
It’s so easy to save your own life——resting on what you’ve done
(Amaj7)
But Jesus would leave the ninety-nine——to try to save the one
C#maj7 (Amaj7)
It’s not easy to beat the system——it’s not easy to face the heat
C# N.C. D# C# N.C. D#
But somebody’s got to take this message
B C# D#m
Back to the street
F# C# D#m B F# C# D#m
As long as there’s a tearful eye that cries alone at night
F# C# D#m B B/A# C#
As long as there’s a weary soul ready to end the fight
B B/A# C# G#m7 F#/A# B
As long as there’s an aching heart that still has strength to beat
F# C# D#m B
We gotta take this message
A E F#m E F#m E
Back to the street
A E F#m D A
We gotta take this message
E F#m
Back to the street
