Man talkin’
Man shoutin’
On about something as if someone somewhere might hear
Man talkin’
Man spoutin’
All about saving everybody from their deepest fear

Man standin’
Man sayin’
Stuff about burning eternal ‘cause your soul has been lost
Man starin’
Man prayin’
All about singin’ of the love and the blood and the cross

Preachin’
In the street with his book in the air
Reachin’
For God. People look… he don’t care
He knows it’s the message that needs to be heard
It’s the message in God’s Holy Word.

Man talkin’
Man preachin’
Chapter and verse from the book that he knows by heart
Man sharin’
Man teachin’
This street-corner church where it’s never too late to start

Man smilin’
Man raisin’
His voice in the name of the Lord – the salvation of all
Man cryin’
Man praisin;
Burstin’ with joy – he cannot resist heaven’s call

He knows it’s the message that needs to be heard
It’s the message in God’s Holy Word.
