Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Chorus: Word of mouth is the counselor There is no need for proof In a world that's wired for sound The tongue becomes the mighty sword That battles the truth In a world that's wired for sound Comin' on like a tidal wave That washes thru the brain--a state of mind No dispute when the noise is made And so it lets the blind lead the blind Lured by charisma to be swayed to believe
Chorus
Easier believing what is hard to get rid of than to try Never searching--just accepting Feeds the mind enough to get you by
Scratching the surface yet to dig deeper down
Chorus: Word of mouth is the counselor There is no need for proof In a world that's wired for sound The tongue becomes the mighty sword That battles the truth In a world that's wired for sound Wisdom from the sacred page Is turned and ignored In a world that's wired for sound
