Lyrics
Can You Hear?
TSC/Martin
Do you see what?s right before your eyes?
Hungry faces holding cardboard signs
Do you feel a pulling at your heart?
When you see them living in the dark
Do you feel their hands reach out to you?
Frozen like their toes in torn-out shoes
Do you climb to find some higher ground?
Covering your ears won?t stop the sound
Chorus
Can you hear your father calling?
Can you hear the whisper through the noise?
Can you hear your heart crying?
Listen, can you hear His voice?
Do you really think you can escape?
Just turn your back and walk away
Maybe that?s your brother in the street
Maybe that?s your sister left to bleed
Chorus
Bridge
He?s a God of mercy, He will lift us up
If we have the courage to give away our love
Chorus
