I Have Heard Lyrics

I have heard in the stories I was told as a child

Of the Lord making man from dust and woman from his side

Speaking into them the sacred breath of life

I have heard God stepped low, God drew near, walked beside

Tell me God, how can I believe that you'd come down and die for me

When you won't even reply to me when I call out in the night

I have heard in the stories that continue to this day

Of the Lord making promises to answer all who pray

Speaking clearly to the sinner and the saint

So I say, God, bend low. God, be near. Don't delay

Tell me God, how can I believe that you'd come down and die for me

When you won't even reply to me when I call out in the night

I've heard stories of all you've done, how you came down and spoke your love

So tell me why do I feel so numb when I call out in the night

Do you even hear me crying

I have heard, not in shaking earth, or shouting hurricane

That a still, small voice was whispering my name

If you're listening, God, say anything

If you're listening, God, say anything

If you're listening, God, say anything

If you're listening, God, say anything

Say anything, God

Tell me now, God, how can it be that you'd come down and die for me

In the dark of my unbelief, when I call out in the night

When the stories are not enough, won't you come down and shout your love

Say my name like you've always done when I call out in the night

I know you hear me crying

If you're listening, God, say anything

If you're listening, God, say anything

If you're listening, God, say anything

If you're listening, God, say anything

Say anything, God
