Power Of The Gospel
It will make a weak man mighty
it will make a mighty man fall
it will fill your heart and hands
or leave you with nothing at all
it's the eyes for the blind
and legs for the lame
it is love for hate
and pride for shame
that's the power of the gospel
that's the power of the gospel
that's the power of the mighty power
that's the power of the gospel
gospel on the water
gospel on the land
the gospel in every woman
the gospel in every man
gospel in the garden
gospel in the trees
the gospel that's inside of you
the gospel inside of me
that's the power of the gospel
that's the power of the gospel
that's the power of the mighty power
that's the power of the gospel
in the hour of richness
in the hour of need
for all of creation
comes from the gospel seed
now you may leave tomorrow
and you may leave today
but you've got to have the gospel
when you start out on your way
that's the power of the gospel
that's the power of the gospel
that's the power of the mighty power
that's the power of the gospel
Comments/Reviews
Thank you, Ben
Ben Harper,
I don't know if you will ever read this, but if by chance you do, I want you to know how beautiful Power Of The Gospel is and thank you for the song. I sang your song at my grandfather's funeral in 2008. Then I sang it at my mom's funeral in 2010. While experiencing the deepest grief and sorrow imaginable, your song helped me and my family remember the connection we share, in life and death, through the power of the gospel. Thank you and God bless you, Ben.
