God Needs Some Young People

God needs some young people

To keep themselves from defilement;

Some who will stand against the current of the age

Who will declare

Lord

from today

We’re going to flee youthful lusts and pursue

righteousness

me and you

Who call upon the Lord

From a pure heart.

Keep purifying our hearts

Enlightening every part

Oh Lord ’til the church is all we see!

God needs some young people

To keep themselves from defilement;

Some who will stand against the current of the age

Who will declare

Lord

from today

We’re going to flee youthful lusts and pursue

righteousness with the view—

The building of the church.

Not wasting time

Pressing on toward the goal

Occupied with the prize

Oh Lord

we’ve been wrecked

we’ll build Your church!
