Are You Listening

Are You Listening?

(I was hungry... You fed me. Naked... you clothed me.

They will know us by our love.)

Can't image how it felt as you lay there

Through the dark, through the heat, through the cold.

With your friend, by your side

Held his hand and watched him die

And you cried as you prayed for his soul.

I can't imagine how it felt as you stood there

Through the winds that would just not go away.

Kiss my wife. Tell my son, 'My work on Earth is done.'

You're the One that can still hear them say...

Is there anybody out there listening?

And does anybody know my name?

No, my friend we were not there,

But we're here and we care...

And yes, we feel your pain.

And yes, we feel your pain.

I can't image how you felt as you sat there,

Trying to hide the fear upon your face.

As the Earth begins to cry

And you ask the preacher, 'Why?'

Tonight, we can hear the children say...

Hear them say...

Is there anybody out there listening?

And does anybody know my name?

No, my friend we were not there

But we're are here and we care

And yes, we feel your pain.

And does anybody out there know me?

(Do you know me?)

Can you stop the clock, make this go away?

(Make it go away)

No, that cross you cannot bare

But God can and He cares

And yes, HE feels your pain.

And yes, HE feels your pain.

Please can anybody see,

Because my faith is getting weak

Don't know how much more I can take

Hear my heart and please don't desert me

Is there anybody out there listening?

And does anybody know my name?

Oh, my friend we were not there

But we're here and we care

And yes, we feel your pain.

Is there anybody out there listening?

(Does anybody know?)

Does anybody know my name?
