Albertine

This is a video of a woman by the name of Brooke Fraser and her visit to Rwanda.

I love the lyrics and think it speaks a great truth when it says

"Now that I have seen, I am responsible, Faith without deeds is dead".

I have a responsibility, God has given this to me....I have seen the struggle of people around the world...now I'm responsible to GO and tell them about Jesus and tell others about what I've seen. Enjoy the video...it's pretty powerful.









"Albertine"



I am sitting stillI think of Angelique



Her mothers voice over me



And the bullets in the wall where it fell silent



And on a thousandth hill, I think of Albertine



there in her eyes what I don't see with my own



Rwanda






Now that I have seen, I am responsible



Faith without deeds is dead



Now that I have held you in my own arms, I cannot let go till you are






I am on a plane across a distant sea



But I carry you in me



and the dust on, the dust on, the dust on my feet



Rwanda






I will tell the world, I will tell them where I've been



I will keep my word



I will tell them Albertine






I am on a stage, a thousand eyes on me



I will tell them, Albertine



I will tell them, Albertine
