people need the Lord

This song was the band message at ACH this morning, I read the words and they brought me to tears, cause the words of this song is so true.

People need the Lord

Everyday they pass me by,
I can see it in their eye.
Empty people filled with care,
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, people need the Lord.
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize -- people need the Lord?

We are called to take His light
To a world where wrong seems right.
What would be too great a cost
For sharing Life with one who's lost?
Through His love our hearts can feel
All the grief they bear.
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share.

People need the Lord, people need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize that we must give our lives,
For people need the Lord.
People need the Lord.


We have the words of hope, we know the Good news, it is our job to tell people, to let the Spirit speak through us. We do not have to worry about what to say, cause the Holy Spirit will give us the words that we need. And we do not have to fear, for we have not been given a spirit of fear, but of power, love and sound mind.
Since we have been given this spirit of power, love and sound mind, shouldn't that spirit drive us to love people, the people around us whoever they are. To share the Good news with them, isn't that love, to share the good news that we have already recieved.
