(Lord do it)
Lord please do it for me
(Lord do it for me)
This is a cry if you love your children
(Lord) lord do it
Do it for me
Do it for me right now
I believe I will fail again
If you get it in trouble, you can fail (Lord, do it)
Call me a way-maker today
If your sick you can say, Lord do it (Lord do it for me)
Because we know You're a doctor
If your heart is heavy
You can say (Lord, do it)
Do it for me, please sir, right now
If you've read your bible
You've read the story
About the man
That could not see, hallelujah
But he heard that Jesus was coming by
He just inched his way along and cried out
Jesus lay your hand
Please lay your hand on me
And I heard the blind man say
I know you can do it (Lord do it)
You took two little fish and five loaves of bread and fed five thousand
(Lord do it for me) I know you can do it oh yes you can
You went to the grave yard one day
And told a dead man to get up so (Lord do it) I know you can do it
I know you can do it I know you can do it
So here's my little problem Jesus (do it for me) fix it for me right now oh yeah
I'm going to ask one more time
'Cause I know you can do it master
(Lord do it) I know you can do it
You went to a wedding one night and turned water into wine
I know you can do it (Lord do it for me) I know you can do it lord do it for me
And then you went one Friday eve and hung on Calvary and died for my sins
I know you can do it master, I know you can do it, so please do it for me right now
Do it for me (do it for me right now)
You see when you ask the lord to do something for you he can do it in a hurry
Do it for me, while I'm still singing, right now
Yes sir, yeah yeah Lord please
Do it for me right now
"Lord Do It" by Rev. James Cleveland is a song that expresses the singer's cry for divine intervention. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Lord do it" as a plea for help. The verse elaborates on situations where one can call on the Lord for assistance, such as when one is sick, heavy-hearted, or in trouble. The song also references stories from the Bible where Jesus miraculously healed the blind man, fed the multitude with a few fish and loaves of bread, turned water into wine, and died for our sins on the cross. The singer recognizes Jesus' power to perform miracles and pleads for his help in his own personal problems.
The song's lyrics reflect the gospel tradition of calling upon the power of Jesus to solve personal problems. It is a common theme in many gospel songs to acknowledge Jesus' power to perform miracles and the importance of faith in receiving divine help. The repetition of the phrase "Lord do it" emphasizes the urgency and desperation of the plea for help. The song also highlights the singer's trust in Jesus' ability to perform miracles, even in seemingly impossible situations.
