Hear Us From Heaven

Our church is putting on a worship event. Both B and I are apart of it. We've been rehearsing it every Friday night in March -- it's been amazing to be part of such a God-centered experience (for lack of a better word). Even the rehearsals are a blessing! We all got CD's to listen to throughout the week as well, and just listening to the music on the recording is inspiring.

Some of the words from the title song are:

Lord, hear our cry
Come heal our land
Breathe life into these dry and thirsty souls

Lord hear our prayer
Forgive our sin
As we call on your name
Would you make this a place for your glory to dwell

Open the blind eyes
Unlock the deaf ears
Come to your people
As we draw near

Hear us from Heaven
Touch our generation
We are your people
Crying out in desperation

The words literally give me goosebumps -- It's so much better to hear it with the actual music, but the lyrics themselves are where the power lies. God is mighty, and my prayer is that the night we sing, that His Spirit will be there among us, and that many people will open their ears and hear His word and His message of hope. There are so many lost souls in the world, for that matter, there are so many lost in my community -- and I hope and pray that they come in droves and listen and hear.

God, may your name be exalted and praised!!!!!!! Hear us from Heaven!
