Gospel Song lyrics

Oh, the sun went down 

on the world of men.

Lord, Lord, Lord,

will you give me consolation?

I knew that my heart 

would be lifted up again.

Lord, Lord, Lord,

will this be my salvation?

And when I thought that I 

couldn't face another day,

and when the world was dark,

got down on my knees to pray

and I said:

Lord, will you send 

a little love to light the way?

Lord, Lord, Lord,

will you listen to your children?

My faith was gone.

(Hear me now, Lord).

I had no hope left.

Lord, Lord, Lord,

won't you lead me from confusion?

Won't you give me your hand?

(Take me now).

But let me take another step.

Lord, Lord, Lord,

lead me from my own illusion.

(Smile on your child).

Oh, won't you smile on your child?

Don't you hear me cry?

(Hear me, Lord).

Oh, do you hear me, 

do you hear me, Lord?

Then I will rise instead of fall.

Oh, Lord, will you send

a little love to guide us all?

Lord, Lord, Lord, 

will you listen to your children?

(Smile).

Oh, won't you smile on your child?

Now, don't you hear me call?

Well, do you hear me, 

do you hear me, Lord?

(Hear me, Lord).

I will rise instead of fall.  

Oh, Lord, will you send

a little love to guide us all?

Lord, Lord, Lord, 

will you listen to your children?
