I REALLY miss the musical writings of Bob Hartman! I stumbled across one today that years ago was often used by God to break open my heart for the world. I post that great set of lyrics by Bob below...
ROSE COLORED STAIN GLASS WINDOWS
Another sleepy Sunday, safe within the walls
Outside a dying world in desperation calls
But no one hears the cries or knows what they're about
The doors are locked within, or is it from without?
Looking through rose colored stained glass windows
Never allowing the world to come in
Seeing no evil and feeling no pain
Making the light as it comes from within so dim... so dim
Out on your doorstep lay the masses in decay
Ignore them long enough, maybe they'll go away
When you think you have so much, you have so much to lose
You think you have no lack, when you're really destitute
Looking through rose colored stained glass windows
Never allowing the world to come in
Seeing no evil and feeling no pain
Making the light as it comes from within so dim... so dim
How TRUE and Heartbreaking is that! God help us!
If you want to hear the song as they performed it then the following link will let you do so.
