Full Transcript
I am the lost one, weak and condemned, the one that God wants you to talk to, but you're scared you'd offend. And I am the outcast, rejected inside, oh I'm looking for answers, but I'm blinded by pride. So come out and preach, preach unto me, and tell me the secret to eternity.
Be bold and speak, and reach out to me, no I can't save myself, but I want to be free and there's something inside you I need, oh there's something deep down inside you I need. And I'm locked in a closet, dark and alone, and I need you to love me, but you cast a first stone. Oh I am the lost one, weak and condemned, the one that God wants you to talk to, but you're scared you'd offend.
Why don't you come out and preach, preach unto me, and tell me the secret to eternity. Be bold and speak, and reach out to me, no I can't save myself, but I want to be free and there's something inside you I need, oh there's something deep down inside you I need. Yes there's something in your heart I know I need, and I can see it in your eyes, I know I need it.
So come out and preach, preach unto me, tell me the secret to eternity. Be bold and speak, and reach out to me, no I can't save myself, but I want to be free and there's something inside you I need, oh there's something deep down inside you I need. So come out and preach.
