The Preacher Said, "Jesus Said" (with Billy Graham)

Well, with everybody tryin' to tell us what to do

You wonder how are you to know whose word is true

But the preacher just keep on a bringing us the very same word

And from St. Paul to Billy Graham the same is heard

And the preacher said of truth, Jesus said

And Jesus said, "I'm the way, the truth, and the life"

Well, we can see that the world is full of greed

There's so much hate yet there is so much need

What should we do when no one seems to care?

What can we do when there is no love there?

And then the preacher said of love, Jesus said

Jesus said, "Love thy neighbour as thyself"

Well, please tell us the road we oughta go

In such confusion, how are we to know?

And if there is a heaven, show us to its gates

Oh, you'd better tell us preacher before it's too late

And then the preacher said of heaven, Jesus said

Jesus said, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness

And all these things shall be added unto you"

Well, please tell us how we can find a way

To climb every mountain that we face every day

And in time of trouble what to depend upon

To be the truth and help us carry on

And the preacher said of trouble, Jesus said

Jesus said, "Let not your heart be troubled

If you believe in God, believe also in me

In my father's house are many mansions

If it were not, so I would have told you

I go to prepare a place for you

And if I prepare a place for you, I will come again

And receive you unto myself

That where I am, there you may be also"
