Lonely Voices Crying in the City

Author: Billie Hanks, Jr Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3899 Lyrics: 1. Lonely voices crying in the city, Lonely voices sounding like a child. Lonely voices come from busy people, Too disturbed to stop a little while. Lonely voices fill my dreams, Lonely voices haunt my memory. 2. Lonely faces looking for the sunrise, Just to find another busy day. Lonely faces all around the city, Men afraid, but too ashamed to pray. Lonely faces do I see, Lonely faces haunt my memory. 3. Lonely eyes, I see them in the subway, Burdened by the worries of the day; Men at leisure, but they’re so unhappy, Tired of foolish roles they try to play. Lonely people do I see, Lonely people haunt my memory. 4. Abundant life He came to truly give man, But so few His gift of grace receive. Lonely people live in every city, Men who face a dark and lonely grave. Lonely faces do I see, Lonely voices calling out to me. The words & music to this hymn are under copyright.
