TAKE ME WITH YOU

As I listen to the news I hear another child died.
The tears roll down my face and I ask you why.
Take me with you, Lord.
Take me with you.
Earth seems so unfair. You are everything to me.

I will follow you and live my dreams
Helping others is so rewarding it seems.
Take me with you, Lord.
Take me with you.
Earth seems so unfair. You are everything to me.

I share you with my friends and family.
It brings such joy when they believe wholeheartedly.
Take me with you, Lord.
Take me with you.
Earth seems so unfair. You are everything to me.

World leaders want war, it seems, instead of peace.
Is power so much more important than love, sharing, and saying please?
Take me with you, Lord.
Take me with you.
Earth seems so unfair. You are everything to me.

As I rest my head and drift off to sleep.
Your love and compassion I will always keep.
Take me with you ,Lord.
Take me with you.
Earth seems so unfair. You are everything to me. Yes, you are everything to me.

One People

We are one people in the eyes of Our Lord.
I love my Lord God Almighty.
I love Him from mountain to fjord,
From the bottom of the ocean to the top of the highest tree.

I am not worthy of my Prince of Peace.
I have sinned, yet He never lets me down.
His patience is waiting for all to see.
We slip up and all He gives is a frown.

To all God’s people raise your hand.
To all God’s people say Hallelujah!
It’s time to come together as one and take a stand.
We defeat the devil with our unity, Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah to Our Lord.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah to Our Lord.

Reach out your hand to your brother.
Embrace your enemy and lead the way.
Our Lord waits for every child and every mother.
To find the path to Yahweh!

It’s never too late! It’s never too late!
It’s never too late to embrace Our Lord.
Accept the love and renounce the hate.
Reach for the dove and lay down the sword.

To all God’s people raise your hand.
To all God’s people say Hallelujah!
It’s time to come together as one and take a stand.
We defeat the devil with our unity, Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah to Our Lord.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah to Our Lord.
