Far from home and not so sure why we’re here,

Just to serve God and teach about His Son.

It can be tough and sometimes hard to bare;

God’s with us even after summer’s done.

We’re bombarded by faces so eager

To know the hope we have in Jesus Christ.

We pray each will become a believer,

And that they’ll know that Jesus paid the price.

However, God’s timing is not like ours,

And He works things for higher purpose

One we can’t see ‘til after long hours.

The harvest still might not be seen by us,

But we’re lovin’ it, and we’re not quitters

Working as BMC’s ’05 Critters.
