Steven Curtis Chapman - Still Listening Lyrics
I would lay me down to sleepAnd pray the Lord my soul to keepAnd though I never saw Him thereI believe He heard each prayerFor God was great, And God was goodAnd I knew if I spoke the wordsHe would be listeningThe years can take us far awayFrom the simple child like faithBut I am longing to returnTo the place where I first learnedThat God is great, and God is goodSo, I will speak the wordsGod, our Father, once againI bow my head to prayYou are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I sayA prayer for forgiveness, A desperate cry for helpOr praise flowing from a thankful heartLike each time before, I come knowing You're still listeningI will never understandHow the words of mortal manCan reach the ears of One so pureAnd touch His heart, but they do I'm sureFor God is great, and God is goodAnd He is loveGod, our Father, once againI bow my head to prayYou are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I sayA pray for forgiveness, A desperate cry for helpOr praise flowing from a thankful heartLike each time before, I come knowing You're still listeningYou're still listeningNow I lay me down to sleepAnd pray the Lord my soul to keepThough I may not see You thereI believe You'll hear each prayer
