“Hear You (Songs from Morning Prayer April 2024)” by Ben Ward. Released: 2024.
Hear You
Luke Robert Laird / Sandra McCracken / Brett Taylor
Everybody’s telling me what I need to do
What I gotta let go of and what I should hold on to
Bad advice with good intentions
The answer’s still the thing I’m missing
And everybody’s telling me what I need to do
Everybody’s telling me where I need to go
When to pack my bags and when to just go home
I tried to put on love, tried to find my way
You keep telling me it’s gonna be okay
When everybody’s telling me where I need to go
I need to hear your voice
Something like magic cuts through the static and all the noise
It could be a still, small, whispered song
A crash of thunder that carries on
Everyone’s talking and no one’s telling me the truth
Settle me down
Quiet or loud
I want to hear you
Everybody’s telling me what I need to say
Try to get the words right, tongue-tied, time slipping away
All this pressure to please, to be well-spoken
When sometimes all I feel is broken
Everybody’s telling me what I need to say
CHORUS
See the way, walk in it, see the path come into view
Hear the song and sing it, echo the good news
See the way, walk in it, see the path come into view
Hear the song and sing it, echo the good news
CHORUS
