The Letters
He who has an ear hear what the Spirit has to say
Speak Lord, speak Lord, speak Lord
You have been so strong
You have worked so hard
The striving and the strain
Won't take you very far
Return to me, return to me, my people, return to me
You're wealthy, you have plenty
But, you've endured so much
Just brave the accusations
Be faithful till you've won
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my people, don't be afraid
I know what you've done
And I see where you've been
And I want you to know
That this is not your end
Change your ways, change your ways, my people, change your ways
You had good intentions
Then you were led astray
So, tear down all the idols
And my love will remain
Just keep the faith, keep the faith, my people, keep the faith
Can you still remember
The visions and the dreams
Before the world had changed you
Before you fell asleep
Oh wake up, oh wake up, my people, wake up
I know your strength is fading
But you've been here before
You hold the key of David
That opens every door
So hold on, hold on, my people, hold on
You've been in the middle
You can't decide what's true
I'm standing in the doorway
I won't force myself on you
(Will you) Let me in, just let me in, my people, let me in
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Speak Lord, speak Lord, speak Lord
You have been so strong
You have worked so hard
The striving and the strain
Won't take you very far
Return to me, return to me, my people, return to me
You're wealthy, you have plenty
But, you've endured so much
Just brave the accusations
Be faithful till you've won
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my people, don't be afraid
I know what you've done
And I see where you've been
And I want you to know
That this is not your end
Change your ways, change your ways, my people, change your ways
You had good intentions
Then you were led astray
So, tear down all the idols
And my love will remain
Just keep the faith, keep the faith, my people, keep the faith
Can you still remember
The visions and the dreams
Before the world had changed you
Before you fell asleep
Oh wake up, oh wake up, my people, wake up
I know your strength is fading
But you've been here before
You hold the key of David
That opens every door
So hold on, hold on, my people, hold on
You've been in the middle
You can't decide what's true
I'm standing in the doorway
I won't force myself on you
(Will you) Let me in, just let me in, my people, let me in
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
Come Lord, come Lord, come Lord
