Story Behind The Song
With the storms a year ago (2008) in Parkersburg, Iowa destroying a large portion of the town and killing eight people, plus the floods raging Iowa and leaving major destruction in its path, I thought I should talk with the Lord about all those issues. That turned into Jesus can we talk? This was one of the fasted songs I've every written. I believe I had "help" in writing this song.

Activities around the world are depressing but what we really need is to take our concerns to the Lord in Prayer. The Power of prayer is what we need, the Lord's blessing we will receive.

Lyrics
JESUS CAN WE TALK?
1)Stars at night don't seem to shine daytime clouds work overtime
Wars carry on no end in sight
a hungry child cries at night
and greed is a common place
with everyone caught in the race cause there's one thing we've forgot Jesus can we talk
CHORUS
Jesus hear my prayers
Jesus calm my fears
If we can speak, then I know it all can stop
Oh Jesus can we talk
2)Storms rage on cut like a knife Homes destroyed there's loss of life
Child abuse fear for the young
an angry man pulls a gun
the world is upside down
It's turned into a battle ground cause there's one thing we've forgot
Jesus can we talk
REPEAT CHORUS
Bridge
The power of prayer is what we need
The Lord's blessing we will receive
REPEAT CHORUS
