Avalon's song "People Need The Lord" is a heartfelt call to recognize the spiritual emptiness in those around us and to share the hope found in Jesus. The lyrics describe people carrying private pain and hidden cries, and the chorus emphasizes that at the end of broken dreams, Christ is the open door. The song challenges believers to take His light into a world where wrong seems right, reminding them that through His love, they can feel others' grief and must share the words of life. It's an inspiring reminder of the urgency and privilege of sharing the gospel.

Everyday they pass me by I can see it in their eye
Empty people filled with care Headed who knows where
On they go through private pain Living fear to fear
Laughter hides the silent cries Only Jesus hears
[Chorus:]
People need the Lord People need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams He's the open door
People need the Lord People need the Lord
When will we realize People need the Lord
We are called to take His light To a world where wrong seems right
What could be too great a cost For sharing life with one who's lost
Through His love our hearts can feel All the grief they bear
They must hear the words of life Only we can share
[Chorus]
