Verse 1
Jesus Christ is waiting, 
Waiting in the streets; 
No one is his neighbour, 
All alone he eats. 
Listen, Lord Jesus, 
I am lonely too. 
Make me, friend or stranger, 
Fit to wait on you 
 
Verse 2
Jesus Christ is raging, 
Raging in the streets, 
Where injustice spirals 
And real hope retreats. 
Listen, Lord Jesus, 
I am angry too. 
In the Kingdom's causes 
Let me rage with you. 
 
Verse 3
Jesus Christ is healing, 
Healing in the streets; 
Curing those who suffer, 
Touching those he greets. 
Listen, Lord Jesus, 
I have pity too. 
Let my care be active, 
Healing just like you. 
 
Verse 4
Jesus Christ is dancing, 
Dancing in the streets, 
Where each sign of hatred 
He, with love, defeats. 
Listen, Lord Jesus, 
I should triumph too. 
On suspicion's graveyard 
Let me dance with you. 
 
Verse 5
Jesus Christ is calling, 
Calling in the streets, 
"Who will join my journey? 
I will guide their feet." 
Listen, Lord Jesus, 
Let my fears be few. 
Walk one step before me; 
I will follow you.
