Prompt / Lyrics
“What the World Needs Now is God” (Lyrics By Gerald Logan) ( Verse 1 ) We got money in the bank, but our souls run dry, Building up our towers, reaching for the sky. But no silver, no gold, can buy what we need, It’s mercy and compassion that set the captive free! ( Chorus ) The world needs compassion, the world needs love, A humble heart bowed to the Lord above! Sympathy and kindness, a hand to hold on tight— But most of all we need God’s holy light! ( Verse 2 ) We’re blinded by our pride, lost in selfish gain, Divided and forgotten, still crying out in pain. But if we’d walk in mercy, if we’d choose His way, We’d see the chains of hatred break and fall away! ( Chorus ) The world needs compassion, the world needs love, A humble heart bowed to the Lord above! Sympathy and kindness, a hand to hold on tight— But most of all we need God’s holy light! ( Bridge ) If my people will pray and turn from their sins, God will heal this land, let His glory in! It starts with me, it starts with you, Stand on the Rock, He will see us through! ( Final Chorus ) The world needs compassion, the world needs grace, The fire of His Spirit in this broken place! Every knee will bow, every tongue will cry, That Jesus is Lord and His name is lifted high! ( Outro ) Yes, most of all… Most of all… The world needs God!
