Go in my name
Don’t afraid
Yes the world can be cruel
As the night is long
And greed overwhelming too
All the pain and abuse
And success at all costs
Surely can disempower you
You are all I have
Go in my name
Don’t be afraid
Take my life, my joy
Hope beyond hope
I am with you
For I need your hands and I need your feet
To let me enter in to heal
I have heard my people cry
You are all I have
Your weaknesses I know
I want you still
Don’t be afraid
I delight in you
I always have
Yes, it is true
For I need your eyes and I need your heart
To let me enter in…………
Yes, the world can be cruel…
You are all I have
Go in my name…….I am with you
You are all I have

We are all he has and with him on our side we are capable of great things.
The song is also reminiscent of St Teresa of Avila who said,
