Lyrics Let Me Show You (feat. Phil Keaggy) - John Perry

Out across the China sea
Is a land that's drenched in mystery
Where people live to die by day
And hope the dragon takes the pain away
Where the ancient and the modern meet
Where the water almost hits the street
So may people with so much need
It's busy business when there's mouths to feed

Let me show you what love can do
Let me show you what love can do

To the city that keeps growing higher
Comes the power of the sweet Messiah
Reaching out with hands to heal
To help, to feed, to share, to cry to feel
I've seen the needle and the damage done
I've seen the glory of the Risen Son
I know the two can never live together
I know the Son of God will reign forever

Picture a place where you can make your bed
When you're homeless and you're on the street
Picture a place where you can lay your head
A meal and a smile and somewhere to rest your feet
Beat the street, beat the street

And we who live in our Surburban ease
Ignore our brother begging on his knees
Our ears deaf to his silent pleas
Our eyes blinded by our luxuries
