God Can You Hear Me Lyrics
I've been here before
It's hard to ignore
I'm so used to fighting
The same old wars
Oh what do You see when You're looking at me
Have I taken You for granted
I can't afford this pain anymore
Won't You help me understand it
Chorus
God can You hear me
I need You here tonight
I'm tired of pretending that everything's alright
And I know, I know that You hold tomorrow
But I need You here tonight
I want to feel I need something real
I want to get closer to you
I lay down my will
Oh this human disease it's killing me
Tell me have I been left stranded
I can't ignore this pain anymore
Won't You help me understand it
Chorus
Say won't You say that You'll carry me
Carry me through the storm
Please stay
Won't You stay till the morning comes, morning comes
Just stay

Song Description:
'This is probably the most artsy, edgy, rock song on the record, and I expect it will be one of the songs that people immediately connect with. We all ask God those questions at times. "Are you really there? Can you hear me?" I know I've been there. This is a down-on-your-knees passionate plea kind of song. "I know that You hold tomorrow, but I need You here tonight."' - Michael Tait
