As we “Reach Out for Rejoice Concert,” we may recall people that do need the Lord. I share the lyrics to a song by Steve Green. I am convinced that there are people God wants at this concert, to hear the good news of the Christ child. Here are the lyrics to “People Need the Lord.” I hope we may sing it as a Gathering Song soon.
Every day, 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 to 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 word 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.
The Rejoice concert is an opportunity for God’s people to gather, worship, and celebrate. It is also an opportunity to shine the Light, to people who need the Lord.
