Tell Them That I Love Them
Martins
An old-time preacher in a smalltown church Bows his head to pray Early morning echoes off the empty walls In that sacred place In three short hours this room will be filled up With desperate souls And he's begging God to tell them What they need to know When a still small voice says Tell them that I love them That I died to set them free Tell them there's an answer For everything they need Tell them there's forgiveness And hope in suffering The truth never gets old So say it again and again Tell them that I love them He thinks about Charlie who just said goodbye To his bride of fifty years And Nathan and Sadie still praying for a baby Through empty arms and tears And this is where they're runnin' To find a little peace inside their pain And he's pleading with the Savior For the words to say When a still small voice says Tell them that I love them That I died to set them free, yeah Tell them there's an answer For everything they need Tell them there's forgiveness And hope in suffering The truth never gets old So say it again and again Tell them that I love them Tell them grace is still amazing And there's power in the blood And the old rugged cross is still enough Tell them that I love them That I died to set them free Tell them I'm the answer For everything they need Tell them there's forgiveness And hope in suffering The truth never gets old So say it again and again No, the truth never gets old So say it again and again Tell them that I love them Tell them that I love them An old-time preacher in a smalltown church Bows his head to pray
