Let the Word Do the Talking

Описание: “Let the Word Do the Talking” is a ’90s Country worship song rooted in 1 Corinthians 1:17–25, reflecting a full preterist understanding of the Gospel as God’s completed work of power through the Cross. Drawing from Luke 11, Isaiah 28, 29, and 54, the song contrasts human expectations of signs and wisdom with the simplicity and authority of God’s spoken Word. It tells the story of Jerusalem’s confrontation, the Cross misunderstood by unbelief, and the true family of God formed by hearing and keeping what the Lord has already said. Honest, Scripture-faithful, and testimony-driven, this song proclaims: Christ Jesus is POWER.

Verse 1
A woman raised her voice one day
Said, “Blessed is the womb that bore Your name”
But He said, “Listen close, don’t miss this truth
It’s not the bloodline — it’s what you do
Blessed are the ones who hear My Word
And keep it like a family heirloom held”
They wanted signs like yesterday
But heaven said, “You’ve had your say”

Chorus
So let the Word do the talking
Let the Lord speak plain and true
It ain’t the voice, it ain’t the preacher
It’s the power breaking through
To some it sounds like foolish talk
To us it’s life, it’s everything
So we say a big amen
To the Gospel that still saves

Verse 2
Paul said he didn’t dress it up
No clever speech, no polished touch
The cross was rough, the cross was cruel
A sight the natural mind won’t choose
They call it weak, they call it strange
But that’s where all the power lays
A stone was set in Zion’s ground
Some stumbled hard, some stood their ground

Chorus
So let the Word do the talking
Let the Lord speak plain and true
It ain’t the voice, it ain’t the preacher
It’s the power breaking through
To some it sounds like foolish talk
To us it’s life, it’s everything
So we say a big amen
To the Gospel that still saves

Verse 3
Ariel cried from dusty streets
Eyes shut tight, but mouths still speak
They honored God with words alone
But hearts were far, just like He said
They cherry-picked what fit their view
Ignored the parts that cut them through
They asked, “Who sinned to cause this pain?
The man or parents — who’s to blame?”
But grace stood there and broke the chain

Bridge
Jonah walked into Nineveh
With nothing but a warning word
No thunder, no display of might
Just truth that shook the world
A stronger Man walked in that day
And tied the strong man’s hands
The kingdom came by God’s own finger
Not by man

Final Chorus
So let the Word do the talking
Let the Lord speak plain and true
It ain’t the voice, it ain’t the preacher
It’s the power breaking through
To the lost it sounds like madness
To the saved it’s liberty
Yeah, Christ Jesus is the power
And we are family

Outro
They don’t wanna talk ’bout widened tents
Or peace that came without pretense
But grace still stands, the promise lives
And that’s the song we sing
Let the Lord speak…
We’ll listen…
Amen.
