They stopped saying prayers in school yesterday
And there's a boarded up
Run down church
Down on third and main
The Mission's overflowing
And the crime rate just keeps growing
And I'm not sure where it's gonna stop
But man, this world is all we got

What would Jesus do in time like these?
Would He walk among the sinners
Fall to His knees?
Heal the sick
Save lost souls the way He used to?
Would he threw up his hands and just walk away?
Cry a tear for a world that's gone astray
I'm not sure, but God, I wish I knew
What would Jesus do?

What if He appeared right where you stand?
Could you look Him in the eye
Reach out and take His hand?
Show Him how we are changing this place
Day by day with his amazing grace?
In the heaven on earth, it's matters too
So I have to ask
Is it really enough?

What would Jesus do in time like these?

Cry a tear for a world that's gone astray
I'm not sure, but God, I wish I knew
What would Jesus do?

What would Jesus do?
What would Jesus do?
