We Need A Whole Lot More Of Jesus (and A Lot Less Rock & Roll) Lyrics - Linda Ronstadt

written by Wayne Raney (BMI) 

Well you can read it in the morning papers 

Hear it on the radio 

Crime is sweeping the nation 

This world is about to go 

We need a good old case of salvation 

To put the love of God in our souls 

We need a whole lot more of Jesus 

And a lot less rock and roll

We need more old time camp meetings 

And a lot more prayers of faith 

Prayers that will move a mountain 

Save our souls from the burning waste 

We need a good old case of salvation 

To put the love of God in our souls 

We need a whole lot more of Jesus 

And a lot less rock and roll 

We need more old fashioned preachers 

Pouring out their hearts in prayer 

When you're in their presence 

Well you know that the Lord is there

We need a nationwide revival 

To put the love of God in our souls 

We need a whole lot more of Jesus 

And a lot less rock and roll 

We need a whole lot more of Jesus 

And a lot less rock and roll
