How do you explain?
How do you describe a love
That goes from east to west
And runs as deep as it is wide?
You know all our hopes,
Lord, you know all our fears,
And words cannot express
The love we feel
But we long for you to hear.
So listen to our hearts
(Oh, Lord, please listen)
Hear our spirit sing...
(and hear us sing)
A song of praise that flows...
(A simple song of praise)
From those you have redeemed
(From those you have redeemed)
We will use the words
We know to tell you
What an awesome God you are
But words are not enough
To tell you of our love
So listen to our hearts.
If words could fall like rain
From these lips of mine
And if I had a thousand years
I would still run out of time,
So if you'll listen to my heart
Every beat will say
Thank-you for the life
Thank-you for the truth
Thank-you for the way.
So listen to our hearts
(Oh, Lord, please listen)
Hear our spirit sing...
(And hear us sing)
A song of praise that flows...
(A simple song of praise)
From those you have redeemed
(Those you have redeemed)
We will use the words
We know to tell you
What an awesome God you are
But words are not enough to tell you
Of our love, so listen to our hearts
You know all our hopes
(All our hopes)
Lord, you know all our fears
(And all our fears)
And words cannot
Express the love we feel
But we long for you to hear.
Listen to our hearts
(Oh, Lord, please listen)
Hear our spirit sing...
(And hear us sing)
A song of praise that flows...
(A song of praise)
From those you have redeemed
(From those you have redeemed)
We will use the words
We know to tell you
What an awesome God you are
But words are not enough to tell you
Of our love, so listen to our hearts.
Words are not enough to tell you
Of our love, so listen to our hearts.
