Lyrics
Come To the Lord. VERSE 1 (John): Singing the blues so down and burdened, Just cant seem to get it right. There is one that is like no other, Call on Him, He will hear our cry. VERSE 2 (John): Take us through this fork in the road, Lord, Your way is the way to life. We will cast our care upon You, Dont need all that pain and strife. CHORUS: Come to the Lord if youre weary and burdened. Hell give you a new life; come hide in His bosom. Jesus is all you need; His love is like no other. He died for me and you; come, lets praise the Lord. Verse 3 (Richard) Youre crying in the storm; The path through life is so cruel, and filled with thorns. Now, call on the Lord; He awaits with open arms, filled with love. BRIDGE: Who is like the Lord my God Maker of heaven and earth. Who is like the Lord my God The stars declare His worth.
