Lyrics
She lives from day to day
Hardship and hunger loom, in a shadow of shame
Strugglin’, with the least in the land
Prosperity out of reach; time to lend her a hand
Be the one to give the Least a chance
Well done; it'll be said
Good and faithful servant
He has everything he wants
The power within his reach; yet he is lost
Searchin’, for what, he doesn’t know
In all the wrong places, let’s show him the road
Be the one to give the lost a compass
Well done; it'll be said
Good and faithful servant
They are last when it counts most
Helpless and vulnerable, unseen like a ghost
Lonely and longing to be strong
Afraid of being left behind; help us bring ‘em along
Be the one to bring the Last along
Well done; it'll be said
Good and faithful servant
Good and faithful servant
