Listen
by Michael Doyle

Every new day is a cause to rejoice.
We gratefully raise our loving voice,
Singing our love songs through the length
Of our days with our fullest strength.

Faith is kept in all of our days.
It's a bond working both ways.
The river runs until it overflows.
These are the ways we are to know.

Listen and you will hear it.
We are closer now to the Holy Spirit.
Blessed by the power of His name.
His love removes our blame.

As we give our praise in return
For the love and laws that we learn.
We find He loves us as we deserve.
In return, we live as we serve.

We raise our voices in celebration
As we are reminded in fascination,
Jesus takes us from where we are
And guides our lives like the North Star.

Listen and you will hear it.
We are closer now to the Holy Spirit.
Blessed by the power of His name.
His love heals our shame.
