Geoff Moore & The Distance Heart To God, Hand To Man lyrics

In darkest England, 1865
A dismal slum of poverty
A band of believers rescued from the night
Played songs of hope and offered light

If a man is hungry give him food to eat
If a stranger's thirsty give him drink
If a woman's battered, if a child's abandoned
Bring them in, give them what they need

A heart to God and a hand to man
Here begins the healing of our land
A heart to God and a hand to man
I can still hear the Hallelujah band
A heart to God and a hand to man

Like an army marching as to war
Come to set the captives free
The bread of life for the poorest of poor
Hear their cries, bringing relief

If a man is hungry give him food to eat
If a stranger's thirsty give him drink
If a woman's battered, if a child's abandoned
Bring them in, give them what they need

A heart to God and a hand to man

Here begins the healing of our land
A heart to God and a hand to man
I can still hear the Hallelujah band
Singing, heart to God and a hand to man

While women weep as they do now
While children are hungry, while hope can be found
While one soul remains without light
I will fight on, fight on, I'll fight to the very end

A heart to God and a hand to man
Here begins the healing of our land
A heart to God and a hand to man
I can hear the Salvation Army band

Singing, heart to God and a hand to man
Here begins the healing of our land
A heart to God and a hand to man
I can still hear the Hallelujah band

Singing, heart to God and a hand to man
Here begins the healing of our land
A heart to God and a hand to man
I can still hear the Salvation Army band
