VERSE 1:
 
G             D/F#    Em
Everyday they pass me by
G            D/F#     Em
I can see it in their eyes
G/B          Em
Empty people filled with care
Am                 Dsus4 - D
Headed who knows where
G                  D/F#    Em
On they go through private pain
G/B            Dm  C
Living fear to fear
C/G                  G/B
Laughter hides their silent cries
Am          Dsus4- D
Only Jesus hears
 
 
CHORUS 1:
 
G                Am
People need the Lord
G/B              C
People need the Lord
D       C     G/B     C
At the end of broken dreams
Am             Dsus4 - D
He’s the open door
G                Am
People need the Lord
G/B              C
People need the Lord
D      C     G/B   C
When will we realize
Am      D        G
People need the Lord

VERSE 2:
 
G                D/F#      Em
We are called to take His light
G                 D/F#        G
To a world where wrong seems right
G/B                Em
What could be too great a cost
Am                    Dsus4  -   D
For sharing life with one who’s lost
G                     D/F#      Em
Through His love our hearts can feel
G/B               Dm   C
All the grief they bear
C/G                 G/B
They must hear the Words of Life
Am          Dsus4 - D
Only we can share

People need the Lord
G/B             C
People need the Lord
D     C      G/B   C
When will we realize

That we must give our lives

People need the Lord
Am     Dsus4 - D  G
People need the Lord
