The Medicine

(albüm: The Gospel At 23 - 2020)

There's a sickness here that threatens to divide us
And we're all afraid to say its name out loud
But Lord, I know that you can heal us of the virus
So, we need you, we need you right now

There's a darkness here that's dangerous and aggressive
It gets harder every day to shake its power
Lord, I know that you can free us from oppression
But we need you, we need you right now

Cause we don't know what to do
So, we turn our eyes to you
And we've run out of words to say
But if you come and have your way
You can save us from ourselves
Before our wound hurt someone else
We need you now

What does it mean to have compassion for another?
How can I claim to love a God that I can't see?
If I can find the will to harm and kill my brother
Cause he neglected to look like me

I can speak the words of men and songs of angels
I can lend all my possessions to the poor
But if your love can't move the mountain of my hatred
Somehow, I missed you and I need you so much more

Cause we don't know what to do
So, we turn our eyes to you
And we've run out of words to say
You can come and have your way
You can save me from myself
Before my wounds hurt someone else
I need you now

We don't know what to do
So, we turn our eyes to you
We've run out of words to say
Please come and have your way
Won't you come and save me from myself
Before I hurt someone else
I need you now
We need you now
