Phillip Sandifer - Crying for a Saviour lyrics

Words and Music by Phillip Sandifer Down in Sao Paulo kids live in the streets It rains d**h in Africa there's nothing to eat Blacks hate the whites, whites hate their own And we deal with our guilt by living life stoned Chorus We are crying for a saviour While we scratch at the surface The roots go untouched We are crying for a saviour One who's given us the answer And whose motive was love Philanthropies profit from taxes deferred While needing recipients can't buy a shirt Well the system it's not working and it's beyond repair An overhaul's due but there are too few who care Chorus The answer's been given through a d**h on a cross As Christ died returning to us that which we'd lost Relations with God once again are begun As we come to know him through are saviour His son Repeat Chorus
