If We Believe
Al Denson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A dying world awaits
A reason to survive
Through compassionate eyes
We see the needs too great
To push the Call aside
Now's the time
We must show them love brings life
If we believe, Jesus lives
Then His power lives within
If we believe, Jesus saves
We will lead the lost to Him
If we believe that He is coming
We've gotta work like it's tonight
We can change the world by His might
If we believe
The challenge we face
Is not an easy task
But still His will remains
He will conquer our fears
When we boldly ask
"Lord, send us in Your name"
We will go
'Cause His strength is ours to claim
If we believe Jesus lives
Then His power lives within
If we believe Jesus saves
We will lead the lost to Him
If we believe that He is coming
We've gotta work like it's tonight
We can change the world by His might
If we believe
By His spirit we know
God enables the ones He has chosen
If we believe
Yes, we believe Jesus lives
And His power lives within
Yes, we believe Jesus saves
We will lead the lost to Him
If we believe that He is coming
We've gotta work like it's tonight
We can change the world by His might
Yes, we believe Jesus lives
And His power lives within
Yes, we believe Jesus saves
We will lead the lost to Him
If we believe that He is coming
We've gotta work like it's tonight
We can change the world by His might
Yes, we believe Jesus lives
And His power lives within
Yes, we believe Jesus saves
We will lead the lost to Him
Yes, we believe Jesus lives
And His power lives within
Oh, yes, we believe Jesus saves
We will lead the lost to Him
