Story Behind The Song

Came home from work, thought about the stress and the tension, meditated on a better way; out popped a song.

Song Description

Retrospective on slowing life down

Lyrics

Lord I'm Listening

Ev'ry day is spent running ragged around the things I can't change
Ev'ry night, tossing and turning, the dreams just add to my rage
I used to hear freedom calling my name
Now I fear the name has been changed
Or maybe I just don't hear it the same

I've got to slow down my world that keeps marching round, like a non-stop parade
Twenty-four seven is just right for heaven but I'm not made that way
I've got to stop running and re-learn how to crawl
Got to stop trying to handle it all
It's time to wake up and heed the call

Lord I'm listening to your whispering


Lord, please grant me the peace that I need to change the things that I may
And give me the wisdom to know when it's time for me to just walk away
I might be list'ning but I don't know it all
It's far too easy to stumble and fall
Give me strength to keep hearing your call

Lord I'm listening to your whispering
Lord I'm listening to your whispering
