verse 1
C9 Em
how do you explain , how do you describe
C9 D/F#
a love that goes from east to west
G
and runs as deep as it is wide

C9 Em
you know all our hopes , lord you know all our fears
C9 D/F#
words cannot express the love we feel
G
but we long for you to hear

chorus
C9
so listen to our hearts ,
( oh lord , please listen )
Em
hear our spirit sing
( and hear us sing )
C9 D/F#
a song of praise that flows
( a simple song of praise )
G
from those you have redeemed
( from those you have redeemed )
C9
we will use the words we know
D/F# Em D/F# C9
to tell you what an awesome god you are
C9 D/F#
but words are not enough to tell you of our love
G
so listen to our hearts

verse 2
C9
if words could fall like rain
Em
from these lips of mine
C9 D/F#
and if i had a thousand years
G
i would still run out of time
C9
but if you listen to my heart
Em
every beat would say
C9 D/F#
thank you for the life , thank you for the truth
G
thank you for the way
