No Power in Pity Lyrics

I don't know how to love you.
Where do I begin.
It helplessness is sinning
Then here I am a sinner
Guilty of sin.

I don't know how to help you
Your trouble goes so deep
You're about to lose your life
And here I am dejected
'cos I love a night of sleep.

Love one another you said
Come together as one.
I'm just a servant, lord
Yet you made me a son
Sometimes I'm troubled
By the things you make me see.
But no matter how I feel, lord
Here am I send me.

So I leave the world behind me
And enter this domain.
I'm staggered by the gulf
Between us.
I can see your sickness
But I don't feel your pain.

Pity's got no power
Compa*sion has the heart
Jesus, keep me mindful
That it's you who does the
Giving.
And it's we who need to
Play our part.
