People Need The Lord

When a heart beats, it sounds like ‘pip pop’, 'pip pop'. Someone once said that it sounds like 'people'. God’s heart beats for ‘people’. The Lord burns in our hearts the deep desire for those who are lost without Him. One day while i was on a bus travelling along Orchard Road, the Lord’s burden came upon me so strong and i started to tear. I knew the reason was because of His burden and love for those who need Him so desperately. All these hopeless, helpless, lonely, dejected people who walk through life aimlessly need the Lord. May the Lord continue to burden our hearts to reach out to the lost and dying world. Lord, burn your deep desire in us!

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 the 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 is 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.

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
