We Are All the Same

 WE ARE ALL THE SAME


No matter who we are or what walk of life we lead

We all still have the same struggles and the same basic needs. 

We all have had hurts and pains that chill us to the bone

We all have the same fears and doubts that all mankind have known.


We sometimes feel we’re the only ones who committed so great a sin

And we’re the only ones with such fear and doubt within.

When every person in the world has fought demons deep inside;

That haunt and torture us, and break down our pride. 


We’re all the same inside, and none of us can make it alone

The rich the poor, the one on the street without a home

The senators and high officials who are on TV each night 

The little girl, who came home crying from a school fight.


We’re all the same, and we all need a Savior to set us free. 

We all need His love, for only in Him, is the key. 

To being freed from our past and to a path this is pure. 

To a life of peace and one this is safe and secure. 


So, when you look at another whose life seems so important then;

And you feel a tad inferior, because your life doesn’t compare to him

Remember he is the same inside, though he covers it well,

Look into his heart for only then can you truly tell. 


He may need your prayers, though, he may never say

Look up to the heavens, and for this man please pray anyway. 

We need to stop passing judgment on someone who has less. 

Those we see as freaks, the beggars and the homeless. 


No matter what we think, only God knows what is truly going on.

So stop and pray for them it just takes a minute before moving on. 

Yes, we are all the same inside, each person on this earth. 

We all needs Jesus’ touch, we all need to put Him first. 


So pray for your fellow man, despite what you may see. 

Jesus alone for all of us is the one who can set us free. 

This is what we are all here for, to touch each other and to give.

Yes, we are truly all the same in this life on earth we live.
