The Rochesters - Should We Neglect The Cause

      [Verse 1]
     C
When Jesus journeyed here
   G
He traveled far and near
     F                 C                 G
With one main goal: to seek and save the lost.
           C
Though His followers condemned Him so,
  G
Unto a sinner He would go;
       F                  C            G
Still, He pressed on, His message to bestow.


[Chorus]
       C
Should we neglect the cause?
       G
Should we forget the lost
    F                 C             G
And fail to point the sinner to the cross?
     C
Then would our labor be in vain
   G
If we deny Jesus' name
F            C              G
To the world dying in their shame.
            F
Should we neglect the cause.


[Verse 2]
    C
But now into the field,
   G
It has much fruit to yield.
     F               C            G
But, sad to say, the laborers are few.
   C
To busy seeking wealth and fame
    G
And worldly good and selfish gain;
    F                 C            G
Not knowing they will never mean a thing.


[Chorus]
       C
Should we neglect the cause?
       G
Should we forget the lost
    F                 C             G
And fail to point the sinner to the cross?
     C
Then would our labor be in vain
   G
If we deny Jesus' name
F            C              G
To the world dying in their shame.
            F
Should we neglect the cause.


[Tag]
F               C
One by one they go,
F            G    C
People dying everywhere,
F              C
Who will never know
     F     Dm     G
That Jesus really cares.


[Chorus]
       C
Should we neglect the cause?
       G
Should we forget the lost
    F                 C             G
And fail to point the sinner to the cross?
     C
Then would our labor be in vain
   G
If we deny Jesus' name
F            C              G
To the world dying in their shame.
            F
Should we neglect the cause.


            G         C
Should we neglect the cause.
