He said

So a soft melody doesn't reach you,

No, it kind of leaves you out.

That's why I'm here to tell you,

Just what it's all about

He can reach out to you,

At any point in your life,

It doesn't matter if your livin' high,

Or livin' in strife.

And the music's not the message,

The message here is love,

And if you wonder where I'm coming from,

Brother look above!

He said suffer not the children.

He said come on to me.

His words, echo through the centuries,

They're there for you, they're there for me.

So you know now what we're thinking,

You know where we're coming from,

We know the guitars are screaming,

And we know you're not dumb.

But the music is just the background,

For the words that you need to hear.

So much of what gets in your brain,

Jumps in through the ears.

So let me tell ya 'bout Jesus, (He said I am the life.)

Let me show ya his way,       (He said My yoke is easy.)

Let me you the empty tomb,       (He said And on the third day..)

Let me show you my hope today!  (He said I am the Alpha and Omega)

He said suffer not the children.

He said come on to me.

His words, echo through the centuries,

They're there for you, they're there for me.

So can you show me where you're going?   (He said come on to me.)

Can you show me where you've been?       (He said I am the way.)

Do you remember, are you knowing?        (He said In memory of me.)

He's coming again!

He's coming for me,

He's coming for you,

We better be ready my friend,

We'd better do what he said to do!

He said suffer not the children.

He said come on to me.

His words, echo through the centuries,

They're there for you, they're there for me.
