Older People
by Greater Vision

Album: Think About There

They grew up in a day of black and white
Where wrong was always wrong
And right was always right
And you never had to wonder come Sunday where they'd be
With their sons and daughters in pew number three

But now this modern age has them feeling out of touch
The church has turned the page, isn't asking them for much
There a fortune of knowledge and they've been through the fire
And to have them here among us, just think how blessed we are

Their wrinkles tell the story of how they made it through
They faced the rain and weathered storms, their scars are living proof
Their wisdom is a treasure right underneath our steeples
We could learn so much if we take the time to listen to older people

They can tell us how revival will melt a hardened heart
How teardrops on our bibles is always where it starts
And when the way seems hopeless the church can still achieve
If we'll preach the gospel boldly and stay on our knees

I'd rather hear from those who've been there telling how they overcame
As they walked the road familiar and did it all in Jesus' name

Their wrinkles tell the story of how they made it through
They faced the rain and weathered storms, their scars are living proof
Their wisdom is a treasure right underneath our steeples
We could learn so much if we take the time to listen to older people
