Saturday Song: All the People Said Amen

On weekdays during the season of Lent, we post daily meditations on our website, and on Saturdays we include a piece of music, as well. These songs are submitted by parish family members and friends of Christ Church, and meant to uplift, comfort, and inspire. We hope that you enjoy.

All the People Said Amen

One, two, sing, five

You are not alone if you are lonely

When you're feeling frail, you're not the only

We are all the same in need of mercy

To be forgiven and be free

It's all you got to lean on

But thank God, it's all you need

And all the people said Amen, whoa, oh-oh

And all the people said Amen

Give thanks to the Lord, for his love never ends

And all the people said Amen

If you're rich or poor, well, it don't matter

Weak or strong, we know love is what we're after

We're all broken, but we're all in this together

God knows we stumble and fall

And he so loved the world he sent his son to save us all

And all the people said Amen, whoa, oh-oh

And all the people said Amen

Give thanks to the Lord, for his love never ends

And all the people said Amen

Blessed are the poor spirits who are torn apart

Blessed are the prosecuted and the pure in heart

Blessed are the people lonely for another start

For this is a kingdom, the kingdom of God

And all the people said Amen, whoa, oh-oh-oh

And all the people said Amen

Give thanks to the Lord, for his love never ends

And all the people said Amen

And all the people said Amen, whoa, oh-oh-oh

And all the people said Amen

Give thanks to the Lord, for his love never ends

And all the people said Amen
