Listen Up

Listen Up

Intro:

Are we talking too much, and not listening enough?I, myself have learned the art of listening, and it has benefited me greatly. God speaks to us, but are we taking the time to listen?

Verse 1

Do you hear what I hear?

Do you know that God is here?

Quiet your heart and listen close,

You need the truth, a reality dose.

Chorus

Listen up, to the words you're hearing,

Quit your joking and your leering.

The words speak when there is no sound,

Let them permeate the hardened ground.

Verse 2

He spoke the Words of Life,

These words that cut like a knife.

Let them penetrate to your very soul,

Not in part, but the whole.

Chorus

Bridge

Still my soul, and quiet my heart,

Avoid the lies, and make a fresh start.

For Your truth is alive in Your Word,

What I have to say, needs to be heard.

Verse 3

I hear Your still small voice,

I know that I need to make my choice.

What will it take for me to learn?

And for Your heart yearn?

Chorus
