People Need The Lord
Words and music by Greg Nelson and Phill McHugh
Every day they pass me by
I can see it in their eyes
Empty people filled with cares
Headed who knows where
On they go through private pain
Living fear to fear
Laughter hides their silent cries
Only Jesus hears
People need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams
He's the open door
When will we realize
We are called to take His light
To a world where wrong seems right
What could be too great a cost
For sharing life with one who's lost
Through His love our hearts can feel
All the grief they bare
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share
Chorus
That we must give our lives
For people need the Lord
