I found this posted on another website & loved the words!


I just about landed on my knees when I heard this song...



If we are the body
Casting Crowns.

It's crowded in worship today
As she slips in
trying to fade into the faces
the girls' teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know
farther than they know

CHORUS
But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching
why arent His hands healing
why arent His words teaching
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way
there is a way

A traveler is far away from home
he sheds his coat
and quietly sinks into the back row
the weight of their judgemental glances tell him that his chances
are better out on the road

CHORUS
But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching
why arent His hands healing
why arent His words teaching
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus paid much too high a price
for us to pick and choose who should come
and we are the body of Christ

Chorus (2x)
But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching
why arent His hands healing
why arent His words teaching
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus is the way

Thanks.

I just read the words again and listen to the song/ melody. It's powerful and truthful.
Me to can use this song in the ministery with Youthworkers, Church attendees and the youth.

I will see how I can get a CD of this group and the lyrics.

Casting Crowns is one of the most anointed bands alive today. Check out their other songs as well. Many are just as powerful if not more so.
Doth, just go to any Christian bookstore or FYE.
