listening
Sometimes I wonder about the presence of you
Never knowing when you'll be around
Then just as I begin to lose hope on you
I find my life wrapped with your love
From the highest point to lowest depths
You have never let me go
Everything has been through your touch
Your hands carrying me through
At moments I find despair crowding in
Uncertainty, disappointments, wrong choices
Choices that put a veil between you and me
Keeping hearts stone solid
Melt this heart of stone
And put in a heart of flesh
A heart that's beating only for thee
The core that never fails to burn
For through it all your grace just covers me
A cross that tears through the veil of separation
My tears not shed in vain
As I know you have collected each drop
With all the things you have done and sacrificed
How can I stand here and not be moved by you
Let me listen to all you have to say
May my faith bring me to utmost surrender
It is impossible for me to escape from you
My heart can never remain cold
Desperate to be with you more
I shun all hindrances and embrace you
Let me sleep in your arms
Protection and love overflowing
Sing over me
I am listening, listening
