Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) Turn on the six o’clock, same old scene Headlines burning up my TV screen Neighbors fighting over red and blue Families breaking over what is “true” Prices rising at the grocery line Single moms just tryin’ to buy some time Kids glued to a world on a phone Feeling more alone than we’ve ever known (Pre-Chorus) We got more opinions than we got grace More online rage than face-to-face We’re shouting loud but we’re losing sound Somewhere we let love hit the ground (Chorus) This country needs Jesus now Not just Sunday words we shout We need mercy in these streets We need prayer on our knees From the White House to a small-town plow From the schoolyard to the courthouse crowd We’ve tried it every other way somehow Yeah, this country needs Jesus now (Verse 2) Protests marching down main street Broken windows and broken peace Young men sent to foreign lands Mothers praying with folded hands Border towns and city lights Everybody’s picking sides We argue about who’s to blame But nobody’s calling on His name (Pre-Chorus) We got freedom, but we lost our way Trading truth for what trends today If love thy neighbor still means what it did Then tell me why we’re fighting like this (Chorus) This country needs Jesus now Not just hashtags and talking loud We need forgiveness back in style A little faith could go a mile From the factories to Wall Street vows From the church pew to the jailhouse crowd We’ve tried it every other way somehow Yeah, this country needs Jesus now (Bridge) He said blessed are the peacemakers Turn the cheek, don’t throw the stones Love your enemy, pray for strangers Build His kingdom in your homes Maybe change don’t start in D.C. Maybe it starts in you and me (Breakdown) It ain’t about a party line Or drawing battle lines in the sand It’s about a cross on a hillside And loving your fellow man (Final Chorus – Big & Strong) This country needs Jesus now More than ever, here and now We need hope in the hopeless fight We need truth in the darkest night From sea to shining sea somehow Let revival shake this ground If we humble hearts and bow Maybe He’ll heal us somehow Yeah, this country needs Jesus now (Outro) So I’m praying on this front porch swing For healing that only Heaven brings Lord, hear us cry, we’re calling out— This country needs You now.*
