From the recording God Songs
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mornin’ by the bedside, hands folded low
You don’t gotta shout it, He already knows
Tears on your lashes, weight in your chest
Every little burden, He carries the best
[Pre-Chorus]
When the words get thin
And your faith runs small
He leans in close
He hears it all
[Chorus]
God is listening
He hears you
God is listening
Every prayer you breathe through
(He hears you)
God is listening
Right there in the dark
Every whispered plea
Falls straight to His heart
[Verse 2]
In the crowded room, in the quiet car
In the middle of the storm, He knows where you are
Mama said “hold on,” and daddy said “pray”
Even in the silence, He don’t walk away
[Pre-Chorus]
When the words get thin
And your faith runs small
He leans in close
He hears it all
[Chorus]
God is listening
He hears you
God is listening
Every prayer you breathe through
(He hears you)
God is listening
Right there in the dark
Every whispered plea
Falls straight to His heart
[Bridge]
Don’t you let go
Don’t you doubt that sound
He heard your first cry
He hears you now
One tear, one name
One broken “help me, please”
Nothing slips past
Those heaven ears
[Chorus]
God is listening
He hears you
God is listening
Every prayer you breathe through
(He hears you)
God is listening
Right there in the dark
Every whispered plea
Falls straight to His heart
[Outro]
So keep on praying
Keep on praying
He’s listening
He’s listening
