Why won’t you listen – v2


Asking him to say the words
that he is the Christ
God alive, Emmanuel
here with us
He was exasperated
on the edge
speaking an indictment
with awesome dread

Why won’t you listen
the words plain before you
all I have said and done
to lead to understanding
My life a witness
to the power of God
present, abiding
I am the Word
