How many branches to cling to the vine

How many branches to cling to the vine
Without their share of its life
How many men sill pray to their God,
With hate in their hearts like a knife
How can the nations be drawn into peace
Until we cease all out strife

Our lives destroyed by sin, Must change from within,
Our lives must change from within


How many times have men turned aside
Their tears in shame tried to hide
How many years will it take till we know
The hurt we caused in our pride
And why can’t we learn deep down in our hearts
That Christ has already died

Our lives destroyed by sin must change from within,
our lives must change from within
