We read the promise of the coming King Yet we're surrounded by our ennemies Sayin' woe, woe The prophets promised us on every page Yet we're alone here while the heathen rage Sayin' woe, woe We read the promise of a virgin birth And still we're searchin' to the ends of earth Sayin' woe, woe The nations mock us as we scrape and bow We need a Savior and we need Him now We need a Savior We need a Savior We need a Savior To set us free When will we see the Son of David crowned When will the lion and the lamb lie down Sayin' woe, woe When will we see the answer to our prayers When will you hear the cries of our despair Sayin' woe We are depending on Your sacred vows We need a Savior and we need Him now Sayin' woe, woe We need a Savior We need a Savior We need a Savior To set us free How could You leave us this way Forsaken in our pain We're cryin' out now every day 'Till our Messiah comes to reign We need a Savior We need a Savior We need a Savior To set us free
