Jesus Commands Us To Go Lyrics - Keith Green

Jesus commands us to go 

But we go the other way 

So He carries the burden alone 

While His children are busy at play 

Feeling so called to stay 

Oh, how God grieves and believes 

That the world can't be saved unless the ones He's appointed obeys 

His command and His stand for the world 

That He loved more than life, oh He died, and He cries out tonight 

Jesus commands us to go 

It should be the exception if we stay 

It's no wonder we're moving so slow 

When His church refuse to obey 

Feeling so called to stay 

Oh how God comes as He starts the great judgment of fire 

So He can gain, His greatest desire 

'Cause He knows that the souls of the lost 

They can only be reached through us, we're His hands and His feet
