WHEN THE NEED BE HEAVEN WILL INTERVENE
(Afro gospel)
(Verse 1)
When the nights are cold and the tears won’t dry,
When you lift your hands and still ask “why?”
When the mountain stands before your way,
And strength is gone at the close of day.
You may feel forgotten, left alone,
Carrying burdens too heavy to own,
But heaven is watching every pain,
And joy will surely rise again.
(Pre-Chorus)
Hold on, child don’t you fear,
The voice of God is always near,
In your weakness He will be seen,
When the need be, heaven will intervene.
(Chorus)
When the need be, heaven will intervene,
God will step into your storm unseen,
Chains will break, doors open wide,
He will stand right by your side.
When your faith is hanging by a thread,
And hope feels cold and almost dead,
Just believe in what He’s promised you,
Heaven will intervene and pull you through.
(Verse 2)
Daniel prayed in the lion’s den,
God made a way again and again,
Moses stood by the raging sea,
And heaven spoke, “Just trust in Me.”
The same God still remains alive,
Turning ashes into life,
What He did before He’ll do again,
Heaven still responds to men.
(Bridge)
Angels moving, battles turning,
Holy fire forever burning,
Miracles are being released,
When heaven speaks, all fear must cease.
No delay can stop His plan,
No power can withstand His hand,
At the right time you will see,
God’s glory bring your victory.
(Final Chorus)
When the need be, heaven will intervene,
Every valley, every unseen dream,
He’ll make rivers in desert lands,
And lift you safely with His hands.
So keep praying, keep believing still,
For heaven always knows His will,
And in the hour you need Him most,
The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
