Does Any Body Hear Them?

Just the other day, I was driving home from work and heard this song on the radio. It has been around for a while but it has a message that really caught my attention. The song is "Does Anybody Hear Her?" from Casting Crowns.

Here are some of the lyrics from that song, pay close attention to the last two paragraphs of this clip...

She is running A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction She is trying But the canyon's ever widening In the depths of her cold heart So she sets out on another misadventure just to find She's another two years older And she's three more steps behind

Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see? Or does anybody even know she's going down today Under the shadow of our steeple With all the lost and lonely people Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

If judgment looms under every steeple If lofty glances from lofty people Can't see past her scarlet letter And we've never even met her

What do you think this song is saying about the Church? What is your opinion on the Church and its interaction with those "outside" its congregation in today's culture?
