The Ministry Years Vol. 1 cover
02. How Can They Live Without Jesus
Album: The Ministry Years Vol. 1
Artist: Keith Green
         
 

How can they live without Jesus?
How can they live without God's love?
How can they feel so at home down here?
When there's so much more up above?

Throwing away the things that matter,
They hold onto things that don't
The world has gone crazy, but soon maybe
A lot more are gonna know

For maybe they don't understand it
Or maybe they just haven't heard
Or maybe we're not doing all we can
Living up to his holy word

'Cause follies have come and wrong's been done
Even killing in Jesus' name
And if you've been burned here's what I've learned
The Lord's not the one to blame

For he's just not religion
With steeples and bells
Or a salesman who will sell you
The things you just want to hear

For his love was such
That he suffered so much
To cause some of us
Just to follow, follow

So many laughing at Jesus
While the funniest thing that he's done
Is love this whole stubborn, rebellious world
While their hate for him just goes on

And love just like that will bring him back
For the few he can call his friends
The ones he's found true who've made it through
Enduring until the end

The ones he's found true who've made it through
Enduring until the end
