A5                              E5           D5    A5                    E5 
    Everyday they pass me by,      I can see it in their eyes. 
C#5                  F#5                B5                                      E5 - E5 
Empty people filled with care, headed who knows where. 
A5                                  E5                D5     A5                       D5 
    On they go through private pain,     living fear to fear, 
D5                                   A5              D5         B5    E5 - E5 
    Laughter hides their silent cries, only Jesus   hears. 
 

        A5                         B5    A5                        D5 
      People need the Lord,     people need the Lord. 
        E5                      A5                   B5                           E5 
      At the end of broken dreams,    He's the open door. 
        A5                         B5    A5                              D5 
      People need the Lord,     people need the Lord. 
        E5                          A5   B5           E5            A5 
      When will we realize...people need the Lord? 
 

A5                                E5            D5     A5                                    E5 
   We are called to take His light     to a world where wrong seems right. 
C#5                          F#5                   B5                                                E5 - E5 
What would be too great a cost for       sharing life with one who's lost? 
A5                                           E5               D5     A5                               D5 
   Through His love our hearts can feel        all the grief they bear. 
D5                                A5                  D5        B5        E5 - E5 
  They must hear the words of life    only we can share. 
 

E5                            A5 
That we... must give our lives for 
B5        E5          F#5       B5     E5             A5 
People need the Lord,     people need the Lord.
