People Need The Lord

This song was sung at Dedication Service on 20.04.11 for our Church's Easter Musical entitled "The Easter Story: It Is Done!" in coming weekend.. Reminding us about why we do what we do..
Indeed, people really need the Lord, they need to know the love of God who had sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die two thousands years ago in this uncertainty, suffering, faithless world we're living in today..
I cried out to the Lord.. To forgive my sins & iniquities.. To help me to stand-up again and have that passion like Jesus had.. For the lost and those people out there.. May I never give-up.. Never let go of what He has called me to do..
All just because.. People need the Lord..

PEOPLE NEED THE LORD

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 would be too great a cost for sharing life with one who's lost.
Thorough His love our hearts can feel all the grief they bear.
They must hear the words of life only we can share.

That we must give our lives for
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
