Yahweh Shammah - by Marisa

Imagine...

The sound of laughter and children at play,
the streets announcing the birth of a new day.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

A new born baby taking the first breath,
not even knowing there's something like death.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

A widow in mourning standing at a grave,
the fatherless wondering how to behave.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

A very big city always alive,
where most of the people are busy to strife.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there


An African orphan looking you in the eye,
HIV/AIDS the reason he has to die.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

Watching the setting of the sun,
after a day of just having fun.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

A classroom filled with laughter,
where God's the One we're after.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there

You sitting in this place,
beholding the picture of your own face.
 Yahweh Shammah - the Lord is there
