People Need The Lord, Enter In - Steve Green

 

Everyday they pass me by
I can see it in their eyes
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 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 bear
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nothing chills the heart of man
Like passing through death’s gate
Yet to him who enters daily
Death’s a glorious fate
Dearly beloved we are gathered here
To be a holy bride
And daily cross death’s threshold
To the holy life inside

 *Enter in, enter in
Surrender to the Spirit’s call
To die and enter in
Enter in, find peace within
The holy life awaits you, enter in

The conflict still continues
Raging deep within my soul
My spirit wars against my flesh
In a struggle for control
My only hope is full surrender
So with each borrowed breath
I inhale the Spirit’s will for me
To die a deeper death

 If mourners should lament
Let them weep for those alive
For only when my will is killed
Can my soul survive
