Two Weeks In Africa

Lyrics

From Johannesburg to Cape Town, the plane had barely touched down
 She was taking photos for the friends back home
 This was where she had always felt her heart belonged
 She was finally here, the sky was bright and clear
 Two weeks
 And we all can feel the calling
 Two weeks
 To make the world a little smaller
 So a girl got on a plane for two weeks in Africa
 Johannesburg to Houston she came home on a mountain
 But school was starting, things kept moving on
 Before you knew it seven years had gone
 She found a picture of her standing smiling,
 Arms around the starving kids she swore to not forget
 She swore to not forget
 Two weeks
 And we all can feel the calling
 Two weeks
 To make the world a little smaller
 So a girl got on a plane for two weeks in Africa
 And if we follow our dear sun to where the shores are not familiar
 Faces turn to numbers, numbers fall like manna from the sky
 Why, oh why, oh Father, why?
 One village in Malawi now has water running pure and clean
 One church alive in Kenya's full of truth and love and medicine
 We put the walls up but Jesus keeps 'em standin'
 He doesn't need us, but He lets us put our hands in
 So we can see His love is bigger than you and me
 Two weeks
 And we all can feel the calling
 Two weeks
 To make the world a little smaller
 So a girl got on a plane for two weeks in Africa
