Lyrics
Verse 1 To the God who cannot die, I say "Yes," my Lord. To the one who hears me cry, I say "Yes," my Lord. To the God of the oppressed, I say "Yes," my Lord. To the God of all justice, I say "Yes," my Lord. Chorus I say "Yes," my Lord, in all the good times, through all the bad times. I say "Yes," my Lord, to every word you speak. Verse 2 I am a servant of the Lord, I say "Yes," my Lord. I'm a worker in the fields, I say "Yes," my Lord. I'm a prisoner of their wars, I say "Yes," my Lord. Like a politician, inevitably, I say "Yes," my Lord. Verse 3 For the dream I have today, I say "Yes," my Lord. To be a healer of all pain, I say "Yes," my Lord. To come to love my enemies, I say "Yes," my Lord. For your peace in all the world, I say "Yes," my Lord. Verse 4 Like that of Job, unceasingly, I say "Yes," my Lord. Like that of Maria, wholeheartedly, I say "Yes," my Lord. Like that of David in a song, I say "Yes," my Lord. Like Israel for you I long, I say "Yes," my Lord.
