"Listening" lyrics

(Verse 1)
No more pretending that I have all of the answers
No more explaining why I chose the road of disaster
No more excuses for my poor decision making
No more trial and error
I’ll sit still
Try to hear what You’re saying

(Chorus)
I’m listening for You
I’m listening for You
I’m listening
I’m listening so won’t You speak to me?

(Verse 2)
My soul is uneasy
It wants to be with You
My spirit is broken
Take it and make it new
My love is imperfect
It falls short, it tries to be pure
My faith rests in You, Lord
Speak, teach me to endure

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
And if I fall down
Will You lift me up again?
It’s You alone
I can trust to guide me when
The house of cards
I built gets blown away

(Chorus)

(Verse 1 reprise)
No more pretending that I have all of the answers (I’m listening)
No more explaining why I chose the road of disaster (I’m listening)
No more excuses for my poor decision making (I’m listening)
No more trial and error
I’ll sit still
Try to hear what You’re saying
I’m listening for You
