I don’t know whether it’s ingrained in us
Perhaps it’s because of our environment
But there’s a desire in most of us for change
There’s a cry in our hearts to see a difference
A craving to turn the world upside down
It’s in my dreams, it consumes my daydreaming
I see it everywhere, the cry for something more
Some call it activism, they call for a revolution
But leaders alone can’t bring the change we want
We need more, we need a complete overhaul
Leaders can only do so much for us
First of all we need to get them right
But even the best of leaders won’t do
The problem is far much deeper
The system is completely broken
Education, activism and being woke
Growing new leaders, voting right
All these might help for the time being
But if we want true change we need more
We need a people changed from within
We will never taste the change we so crave
Not until every one of us is changed
Changed from deep within us, made anew
Changed to value others more than ourselves
Changed to lay down our lives for others
We need real lasting change and it’s happening
We need change from within and you can see it
Where you ask? Everywhere the Gospel lands
Everywhere hearts are won for Christ change is happening
For the Gospel is changing the world one man at a time
It’s slow and almost unrecognisable but it’s happening
For every man who receives the Gospel is made new
Made new in the likeness of the best of men
Born again in the likeness of the new Adam
The Gospel is changing us, One man at a time
