We Need A Word From The Lord
written by Thomas Whitfield
VERSE ONE
We don't need another political uprising
We don't need another conqueror on the scene
What we need is a special word
That will burn within our hearts
And give us direction from above
CHORUS
We need a word from the Lord
A word from the Lord
Just one word from the Lord
Will move all the doubts
And cause the sun to shine
And give peace of mind
Speak Lord
Speak Lord
VERSE TWO
Lord, we lack thy wisdom and understanding
Lord we lack the very love you showed in your son
Lord we altered in thy ways and we stand so much to gain
So give us your word Lord
Speak Lord (back to chorus)
