The spirit of the Lord is on me It whispers in my ear: Proclaim to all my people that the hour of the Lord is near The melody your spirit sings me I hear it deep inside The coming of your kingdom brings me joy I cannot hide CHORUS And for the Lords sake I will not be silent For the Lords sake I will raise my voice For the Lords sake
I will gather His people And build the city of the Lord The people who were once in darkness Have seen an awesome light My Lord, you send us forth to witness Lead them from the night (repeat chorus) Lord, to whom shall we go? And Lord, to whom shall we run? For you, for you and you alone Have the words of eternal life! (repeat chorus)
