I Can Hear

I can hear Your people crying
I can see their broken hearts
I can feel the intense pain they feel as their lives are torn apart
I can feel my spirit aching as I see their needs unfold
I can hear their desperate yearnings as I hear each story told
I can feel Your Spirit movingI can hear You in their lives
I can see Your glory clearly like I were seeing with my eyes

You can hear each prayer unspoken
You can see what will be best
You can feel their deep resistance to feeling Your peace and rest
You can hear each lost voice calling as You call them to draw near
So please show me how to serve them
Tell me what I am to do
I need to feel You presence as I seek to follow You

I really want to make a difference
to see the captives all set free
I long to tell the world about Your love
and show the love You’ve given me
So I’ll reach out with Your mercy
and extend Your hands of grace
I will walk in Your forgiveness and
shine You light throughout this place

But if I ever start to stumble
which I inevitably will
I ask that You would pull me up again
and choose to use me still
‘Cause I can hear Your people healing
I can see their torn hearts mend
I can feel their joy returning
as they turn to You again
