She walks with a beat as she works the street in the dead of night
She's been laid off and her kids must eat and his money's right
A world away beneath the sun the earth goes dry
A hungry starving people search for food as their babies die
[Chorus]
I tell you, we can touch the world
When we meet them all at their need
We can touch them where they are help them to believe, touch the world
He's on the pipe and he's got the shakes as he takes a puff
Their badges shine and there's no escape as they lock him up
Fourteen years old and without love the girl is livin' wild
How can it be a four month pregnancy and she's the child
[Chorus]
I tell you, we can touch the world
When we meet them all at their need
We can touch them where they are help them to believe, touch the world
[Bridge]
Round the globe people need to know the answer's theirs today, someway somehow
We must let them know that God gives hope and Jesus is the way
