He spoke in parables
He spoke in truth
He spoke forgiveness
In a world that refused
To listen to reason
To heed all the signs
That He alone painted
Through His life and times
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie was exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
He spoke in mercy
He spoke in love
He spoke with wisdom
In a world that was starved
For a word of compassion
Something to trust
A gospel of grace
For each one of us
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie was exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
Oh, with a peace beyond measure
He still speaks today
And all those who've heard Him
Will say...
When He spoke
When He spoke
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
'Cause He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie was exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
When He spoke
He spoke in truth
He spoke forgiveness
In a world that refused
To listen to reason
To heed all the signs
That He alone painted
Through His life and times
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie was exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
He spoke in mercy
He spoke in love
He spoke with wisdom
In a world that was starved
For a word of compassion
Something to trust
A gospel of grace
For each one of us
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie was exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
Oh, with a peace beyond measure
He still speaks today
And all those who've heard Him
Will say...
When He spoke
When He spoke
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
'Cause He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
The storms bowed in submission
When He spoke
Every lie was exposed
When He spoke
There was no doubt of His mission
He spoke the language of hope
When He spoke
When He spoke
