Louise Nelson Poet Ballad

LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN

week after week 
we've continued to see 
mankind's violence 
and brutality 
everyday someone is being killed 
by a gun 
no peace, no harmony 
no community living as one 

let the church say amen 
let's shout hallelujah to God 
let's worship, witness and praise Him 
from the depths of our hearts 

we're disenfranchised, disconnected
we've no community and no cohesiveness 
and the people have the nerve to wonder why 
they have not been blessed 

let the church say amen 
let's shout hallelujah to God 
let's worship, witness and praise Him 
from the depths of our hearts 

we need to develop a relationship 
with the Lord Christ 
for He is the author 
and the finisher of all life 
we need to acknowledge His authority 
come to see 
that through Him there's love 
and a foundation for community 

so let's gather together 
In houses of God 
ve it a mosque, a temple or a church
whichever calls to your heart

let the church say Amen 
let's shout hallelujah to God 
let's worship, witness and praise Him 
from the depths of our hearts 

God will give you a new perspective 
and point of view 
and no matter what's happening in your life 
He will take care of you 

So let the church say amen 
let us shout hallelujah to He
let us worship, witness and praise the God 
who values love and community 

let the church say Amen 
let us shout hallelujah to God 
let us be worshippers and witnesses praising Him
from the depths of our hearts 

let the church say Amen
