Lord, give me the right words to say
 To broken hearts that come my way
 To those who have been hurt before
 That, I not hurt them any more
 To those whose hearts have hardened up
 To those who won't hold out their cup
 That, Lord, You long to overflow
 With love and mercy. Lord, let me know
 That I might have the words to say
 That I might plant a seed today
 That glory would be given to You
 Through all I say and all I do
 Lord, give me the right words to say
 More hearts are breaking every day
 They're out there crying in the night
 I long to help them see the light
 But, fragile are those souls and weak
 So this is why Your words I seek
 And pray Thee give me words to say
 That I, not one soul, turn away.
