In These Days of Lenten Journey lyrics
by Fr. Ricky Manalo CSP
[Chorus]
In these days of Lenten journey
We have seen and we have heard
The call to sow justice
In the lives of those we serve
[Verse 1]
We reach out to those who are homeless
To those who live without warmth
In the coolness of evening we’ll shelter their dreams
We will clothe them in mercy and peace
[Chorus]
In thesе days of Lenten journey
Wе have seen and we have heard
The call to sow justice
In the lives of those we serve
[Verse 2]
We open our eyes to the hungry
And see the faces of Christ
As we nourish all people who hunger for food
May their faith in our God be renewed
[Chorus]
In these days of Lenten journey
We have seen and we have heard
The call to sow justice
In the lives of those we serve
[Verse 3]
We open our ears to the weary
And hear the cry of the poor
To the voices that echo the song of despair
We will show our compassion and care
[Chorus]
In these days of Lenten journey
We have seen and we have heard
The call to sow justice
In the lives of those we serve
[Verse 4]
We call on the Spirit of Justice
And pray for the righteousness’ sake
We will sing for the freedom of all the oppressed
We will loosen the bonds of distress
[Chorus]
In these days of Lenten journey
We have seen and we have heard
The call to sow justice
In the lives of those we serve
