The Appeal Lyrics


Lord, I stand in Your presence
Wanting You and needing You
And I am here and I surrender
All of me so I can seeYour will is where I desire to be
Take all of me
All that I have and all that I do
I give it to You, Lord, it's for YouJust take my hand
And I'll follow You
For all that I am
And all that I do, it's for YouYou are my song
It's Your love that keeps me strong
And You are the light
In the darkness of my nightI'm lost without You
Broken without You
Oh, how I need You
Oh, how I need YouYou make life worth living
Your grace always keep givingI'm lost without You
Broken without You

Oh, how I need You
Oh, how I need YouLord, have mercy, Lord have mercy
Ooh, have mercy
We need Your healing
Please give us healingLord, have mercy
Have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Have mercyOh Lord, Lord, I come
Broken in this place
Weak and poor
For all I have is Yours, all YoursThis life, these things
They can't compare to You
No wealth, no fame can separate
The one my heart adoresYet, we take our eyes off You
We're blind in reaching for the truth
And now this whole world cries
Because it realizesThere is none quite like You
The earth, the stars, the universe
They just repeat these words so trueLife begins and life will end with You
Hear me singingWhen I die, what will they say about me?
Will the work that I've done
Be enough to help someone?
When I die, will I draw men's hearts to You?At the setting of the sun
Wanna hear You say
Well done, when I die
Well done, well doneI know He will make me the spirit and the [Incomprehensible]

Kirk Franklin (born January 26, 1970 in Riverside, Texas) is a platinum-selling musician who blended gospel, hip hop, and R&B in the 1990s. He released his first gospel album, Kirk Franklin & Family, in 1993, and is known as the leader of contemporary gospel choirs such as Kirk Franklin & the Family, Kirk Franklin's Nu Nation, and God's Property.


A native of Fort Worth, Texas, he was raised by his aunt, Gertrude Franklin. He developed a talent for music early, playing the piano at age four and becoming music director of his church at age eleven. After getting kicked out of school in his teenaged years, having a girlfriend become pregnant, and after a friend was shot to death he returned to the church. After leading the DFW Mass Choir at the 1990 Gospel Music Workshop of America Convention, he organized "The Family", a seventeen-voice choir, in 1992 and began his recording career.

He has integrated hip hop styles with gospel themes in albums such as The Nu Nation Project and God's Property, which achieved success on the Billboard Pop Album, R&B and gospel charts.
Franklin has collaborated with the biggest names in gospel music, including Tonex, Donnie McClurkin, Richard Smallwood, Crystal Lewis, Pastor Shirley Caesar, Jaci Valesquez, and Willie Neal Johnson. He also has displayed a willingness to collaborate with artists in the secular realm, including Bono, Mary J. Blige, Crystal Lewis, and R Kelly in the hit single, "Lean on Me."

On October 4, 2005, his new long-awaited album Hero was released, with latest single Looking for You.
