Let It Begin With Me
Matthew 5:14-16

The solution to any problem starts when someone says "I'll fix it".
Imagine the impact we could make if we all took on a problem
and fixed it!  Then again, why imagine?  Let's do it!

I hardly remember when I was a child
But I'm looking at the world today and it's looking pretty wild
Guns and drugs are everywhere
Thinking 'bout my family I don't want to be scared

You see it in the papers, it's in the news every day
There's nothing good to talk about but still they have things to say
We're overloaded with bad news
But I'm not gonna take it 'cause if it's my choice I'll choose

Where there's a wrong that needs a right
Let it begin with me
When there's a child alone in the night
And a friend is all he needs
Don't think twice when you know it's right
If there's an answer to be found anywhere
Let it begin with me

We need to turn our focus from the world to the cross
And turn our eyes to Jesus, and there's no way that we will be lost
He's right beside you can't you see?
And all He's really asking is to talk to you and me.

I know it's hard to jump into the fight
Where there's so much pain and misery
But Jesus calls each one to change the world
And He's countin' on you and me.

Where there's a wrong that needs a right
Let it begin with me
When there's a child alone in the night
And a friend is all he needs
Don't think twice when you know it's right
If there's an answer to be found anywhere
If there's an answer to be found anywhere
Let it begin with me
