They came with arms outstretched as He
As CHRIST did come so all would see
The love of one, Gods only son
Can break the chains of fallen ones
What love is this that turns its cheek?
Joy sacred on desperate streets
That knows not Him who would call them
These 54 that GOD would send
Trial by fire on stomping grounds
Unknown their missions but Heaven found
A way to win their hearts to come
To build the body of Gods Kingdom
They'll speak to all lending of ear
Bringing good news, witnessing tears
That rain as storms rage upon streets
Concrete this jungle, engage defeat
They'll learn as much as they've been taught
Where sin does wage, this war once fought
Back home before they came to know
Of JESUS CHRIST in them aglow
This fight is theirs by God Ordained
For mercy came to break the chains
Of all enslaved that know not love
Man nailed to cross, that reigns above
Gods face shall read on every face
Soft spoken, loving embrace
Will guide them through this wilderness
Where sin cares not for those with less
Upon battleground they'll forge ahead
The word in them CHRIST spoon fed
Will leave the mark of nail pierced hands
Upon the hearts now saved once damned
