lyrics

The people I meet on the street
all got something in common
They're looking for truth, when, in truth,
they need someone to lean on.
They won't admit their feelings to a single soul;
They just keep getting deeper in the same old hole.

Chorus: Can't you hear me callin',
Lord, it seems that I am fallin',
but you just keep on stallin'.
I wish I could believe you
To trust you and receive you,
But God I can't conceive the way
You put me out on hold-
God I know I'm being bold,
But you just don't know how I feel!
How do I know you are real?

The folks that I see next to me
all seem so alone.
There are hundreds of people around
But they all seem like clones.
But they don't know what's hidden deep down in their souls
They just keep gettin' deeper in the same old hole.

Chorus

Lord, I don't know how to show
that they're wrong about you.
They've had it all wrong all along-
They need to be made new.
Now, Jesus has the power to give them a better soul
and stop their getting deeper in the same old hole.

Chorus 2:Can you hear them callin'-
Lord you gotta stop their fallin'-
If only they'd stop stallin'.
I wish they could believe you,
To Trust you and receive you,
But they just can't conceive the way you
Loved them with your son,
God I know that you're the one
who can take away the pain they feel!
Lord, make them see you are real!
