You say I haven't faith to
see,
the light of God alive in
me.
You say I lack a truer
heart
and belief that sets a
soul apart.
You say if I would only
pray,
throw all I think I know
away,
and use my heart and not
my head,
I'd find myself now Spirit
lead!
I'd speak the language
angels use,
the Holy Ghost would be my
muse!
I could raise the dead and
heal the sick,
God's power cutting to the
quick.
You say that every
sinner's heart
would be redeemed, a brand
new start.
If only they could see
God's power
they'd all repent this
very hour.
and yet,
The Bible tells it
differently.
There's evidence for all
to see!
In this world created,
though torn with strife
and in the power of a
new-made life.
I've seen the power of God
above,
I've seen His unimaginable
love.
It's not in gifts of
tounges or health.
It's in the Word and in
myself
The power of God is
plainly shown
in Christ and how His
death alone,
has paid for every
sinner's soul,
a sacrifice to make men
whole.
If men won't listen to His
Word,
if they reject what they
have heard,
no cosmic show will bring
them down,
to submit themselves to
Jesus' crown.
I need no other evidence,
the gospel will suffice.
For my soul was bonded
once to hell,
and Jesus paid the price.
