Speak (The Listening Song)
by Cheri Keaggy

Album: Because He First Loved Us

I'm not coming here for me
Not for my wants or my needs
I am only here to listen
I've already said enough
I don't mean to talk so much
I am only here to listen

So speak loud and clear
I won't argue, I won't fear
Speak words of truth
Something I can hold on to
Speak, You have the floor
And I don't plan to leave, Lord

Until You speak
Come and speak

Lay my own agenda down
Gladly push aside my crown
I am only here to listen
Find me waiting on the couch
Got my pen and paper out
I am only here to listen

So speak loud and clear
I won't argue, I won't fear
Speak words of truth
Something I can hold on to
Speak, You have the floor
And I don't plan to leave

You are God, I understand
Who am I to make these demands?
All I know is what You said
When you said ask, knock, seek
Well I'm asking and I'm knocking
And I'm seeking You, Lord

Just to hear You speak
Come and speak
I want You to speak
Speak

Speak loud and clear
I won't argue, I won't fear
Speak words of truth
Something I can hold on to
Speak, You have the floor
And I don't plan to leave

I have come to know Him well
Oh, the stories we could tell
If you have the time to listen
How He's heard my every plea
He's the king of listening
He finally taught me how to listen
