Medicine for the World Songtext
von Christafari

Woke up in a strange land
A place I′ve never been
People smiling on the outside
But they're dying from within

I went down to the market
To find some food so sweet
I saw the vendor smiling
Dancing to this tabla beat

Me travel from the East to the West
And the West to the East
Opposite directions on the map
Only Christ
Can heal this disease
Only the cross can bridge the gap

He′s the medicine for the world
Only through He can we be healed
He's the medicine for the world
Only through He can we be healed


Contrasting religions
No two opinions are the same
Three hundred million gods they're praising
I can′t keep track of all their names

I tell them about God′s love
And that Christ is Lord of all
We share the love of Jesus
When we give an altar call

Me travel from the East to the West
And the West to the East
Opposite directions on the map
Only Christ
Can heal this disease
Only the cross can bridge the gap

He's the medicine for the world
Only through He can we be healed
He′s the medicine for the world
Only through He can we be healed

Woya, who wants some healing in here?
Wayo, who wants some healing in here
Wayo, ah, ya ya ya ya ya


I saw a beggar on the sidewalk
Tattered bible in his hand
He was dying on the outside
But truly living from within

I've lived in a western world
Where so many are healthy
Yet so few they have truly seen
They′re dying of a sin disease

Me travel from the West to the East
For the Prince of Peace
Opposite directions on the map
Only Christ Can bridge this divide
Only the cross can fill the gap

He's the medicine for the world
Only through He can we be healed
He′s the medicine for the world
Only through He can we be healed

Woya, who wants some healing in here
Wayo, who wants some healing in here
Wayo, ah, ya ya ya ya ya

Woya, who wants some healing in here
Wayo, who wants some healing? Ya, ya, ya, ya

Me travel from the East to the West
Only Christ
