The people said this desert never ends
We have no bread, our throats are dry
Our heads are heavy and our feet need rest
Has He left us here to die?And we've forgotten all His words
As if we never heard
We take our hearts and turn awayBut He is not silent
He is not whispering
We are not quiet
We are not listeningHe sends a lifeline
We keep resisting Him
He is not silent
We are not listeningWe wander through this world in disbelief
Shake our heads at every tear
Searching endlessly for some relief
Has He left us dying here?But we've forgotten all His words
Pretend we never heard
We take our hearts and turn awayBut He is not silent
He is not whispering
We are not quiet
We are not listeningHe sends a lifeline
We keep resisting Him
He is not silent
We are not listening
No, we are not listeningWe take our daily bread
And after we've been fed
We take our hearts and turn awayBut He is not silent
He is not whispering
We are not quiet
We are not listeningHe sends a lifeline
We keep resisting Him
He is not silent
We are not listeningHe is not silent
He is not whispering
We are not quiet
We just are not listeningHe sends a lifeline
We keep resisting Him
He is not silent
We are not listening
No, no we are not listening
I said we are not listeningBut He is not silent
