I Need You To Listen Songtext
von Marty Haugen

I need you to listen
I need you to answer
I need you to listen
I need you to answer

Oh God, I need you to
I want to see your face
It is this love I have
It makes me search for you

I need you to listen
I need you to answer
I need you to listen
I need you to answer

Do not avoid my eyes
Or let me anger you
Do not toss me aside
Oh God, do not drop me


I need you to listen
I need you to answer
I need you to listen
I need you to answer

You are the only hope I have
Father, mother
They can leave me orphaned
But your love must never

Lead me to you, Oh God
Along the smoothest road

I need you to listen
I need you to answer
I need you to listen
I need you to answer

There are those who hate me
Do not leave me to them
They eat my life away
By lying under oath or twisting evidence

I need you to listen
I need you to answer
I need you to listen
I need you to answer


I trust your love
I will see your beauty after death
In your land of life
My love will wait for you

It will be strong waiting
Oh God, my love will wait!

I need you to listen
I need you to answer
I need you to listen
I need you to answer
