We Need You Right Now

Donny Hathaway

[Intro]
Here's a song that I wrote about three weeks ago
Every once in a while I like to write something to my Creator because I believe in Him
"We Need You Right Now"

[Verse 1]
There's no one else to turn to
But you, yeah
You're the only answer to the situation
That we've gotten ourself into

[Chorus]
So Master, won't you please come down
And give us a helping hand
'Cause we need You, mhm
We need You right now, mhm

[Verse 2]
There's a lot of people going hungry
'Cause they can't get nothin' to eat, woo-hoo-hoo
There's a lot of people going naked, naked
They ain't even got clothes to put on their feet

[Chorus]
So Master, won't you please come down, come down
And give us a helping hand
Hey, 'cause we need You
Said we need You right now, ooh-hoo-hoo

[Bridge]
Right now
Right now, Lordy
Said we need You right now
I said we need You, yes, we do
We need You right now, mhm

[Verse 3]
I said man has gotten out of hand
With his evil ways, yeah, yeah, yeah
Can't you see that he, he isn't strong enough
Just a little bit more each and every day

[Chorus]
So Master, won't you please come down
And give us, Lord have mercy, a helping hand
Hey, 'cause we need You, mhm
We need You right now

[Outro]
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo-hoo, oh
Right now, Lord
Hey, hey, right now
Said we need you
We need you, right now, mhm
Hey, we need You, Lord have mercy
Said we need You right now
Woo-hoo-hoo-ooh, woo-hoo
Yeah, right now, Lordy
We need you, Lord
Hey, hey, hey, hey, we need You, mhm, right now
Said we need You, we need You, we need You
We need You right now
We need You right now, yeah
We need You right now, yes, we do, oh
We need You right now
Hey, hey, hey, said we need You right now
Hey, hey, I said we need You, mhm
Yeah, hey, hey, said we need You
Thank you, Lord, right now, yeah, yeah
