Listen To Our Hearts
Geoff Moore And The Distance Lyrics

How do you explain, how do you describe
How can one put into words the depth and magnitude of their love for God?

A love that goes from the east to west
A love that transcends all boundaries and is all-encompassing.

And runs as deep as it is wide
The love is profound and never-ending.

You know all our hopes
God has complete knowledge of our aspirations and desires.

Lord, you know all our fears
God has complete knowledge of our anxieties and apprehensions.

And words cannot express the love we feel
The love for God exceeds the ability of words to fully articulate it.

But we long for You to hear
The worshippers desire for God to hear the love that they have for Him.

So listen to our hearts
The worshippers are pleading with God to pay attention to their innermost feelings.

Hear our spirit sing
The worshippers are calling upon God to listen as they sing praises to Him.

A song of praise that flows
The worship is characterized by a continuous and unceasing flow of adoration.

From those you have redeemed
The worshippers are the redeemed of God who have been saved by His grace.

We will use the words we know
The worshippers will employ their limited vocabulary to expound upon the greatness of God.

To tell you what an awesome God You are
The worshippers will attempt to describe the magnitude and magnitude of God's greatness.

But words are not enough
Human language is inadequate to fully express the greatness of God.

To tell you of our love
The worshippers would like to express their love for God through words.

So listen to our hearts
The worshippers are reiterating their plea for God to listen to their heartfelt expressions of love.

If words could fall like rain
The worshippers are lamenting their inability to express their love for God through language.

From these lips of mine
The worshippers are admitting their limitations in expressing their love for God through verbal communication.

And if I had a thousand years
Even if the worshippers had an infinite amount of time, they would still fail to express the magnitude of their love for God.

I would still run out of time
The worshippers understand that they will never be able to fully express their love for God.

So if You'll listen to my heart
The worshippers are pleading with God to listen to their hearts, as they are incapable of expressing their love through language.

Every beat will say
The beat of the worshippers' hearts will express their love for God.

Thank You for the life, Thank You for the truth, Thank You for the way
The worshippers are thanking God for everything He has done for them, including giving them life, revealing the truth to them, and guiding them on the right path.
