HYMN Lyrics Text: How Many Times (The Answer)

1. How many times

must My people make war

before they Know they are one?

How many times

must their blood be shed

Before they know they are mine

How many times

will they break My bread

Before they give Me to eat?

The answer, My friend,

Is when you see the truth

that I am in the poor

And least of all

2. How many times

must the Sick look up

and find that

there’s no one to care?

How many times

must I stumble and fall

before you offer your hand?

How many times

must I reach through these bars

before you give me the keys

The answer my friend

is when you see the truth

that I am in the poor

and least of all
