Cheri Keaggy Speak (the Listening Song)
I'm not coming here for me
Not for my wants or my needs
I am only here to listen
I've already said enough
I don't mean to talk so much
I am only here to listen
So speak loud and clear
I won't argue, I won't fear
Speak words of truth
Something I can hold on to
Speak, You have the floor
And I don't plan to leave, Lord
Until You speak
Come and speak
Lay my own agenda down
Gladly push aside my crown
I am only here to listen
Find me waiting on the couch
Got my pen and paper out
I am only here to listen
So speak loud and clear
I won't argue, I won't fear
Speak words of truth
Something I can hold on to
Speak, You have the floor
And I don't plan to leave
You are God, I understand
Who am I to make these demands?
All I know is what You said
When you said ask, knock, seek
Well I'm asking and I'm knocking and I'm seeking You, Lord
Just to hear You speak
Come and speak
I want You to speak
Speak
Speak loud and clear
I won't argue, I won't fear
Speak words of truth
Something I can hold on to
Speak, You have the floor
And I don't plan to leave
I have come to know Him well
Oh the stories we could tell
If you have the time to listen
How He's heard my every plea
He's the king of listening
He finally taught me how to listen
