Songtexte

[Verse 1]
Are you sure your prayers haven't been answered now?
Think, brother, think
Are you sure your prayers haven't been answered now?
Think, sister, think
[Verse 2]
And don't you dare say the good Lord didn't stop to hear you
He hears and sees everything you do
Stop right now and take a, an inventory
You'll come up with a different story
[Verse 3]
Because He sees every move you make
Every waggle of your head, every wink of your eye
It's His laugh you're laughin'
And His tears you cry
[Verse 4]
You may not know how to pray, but He loves you when you try
So, raise your voices high and the Lord will hear you (Yeah)
Hear you (Oh, yeah)
[Verse 5]
Oh, He sees every move you make
Every waggle of your head, every wink of your eye
It's His laugh you're laughin'
And those are His tears you cry
[Verse 6]
And you may not know how to pray, but He loves you when you try
So, raise your voices high and the Lord will hear you (Yeah)
Hear you (Oh, yeah)
[Verse 7]
Ooh, Lord, are you sure you haven't been answered now?
Think, you better think
Are you sure, real sure, you haven't been answered now?
Fate, a twist of fate
[Verse 8]
Don't you dare say the good Lord didn't stop to hear you
He hears and sees everything you do
Stop right now and take a inventory
You'll come up with a different story
[Verse 9]
'Cause he sees every move you make
Every wiggle of your head and wink of your eye
It's His laugh you're laughin'
And those are His tears you cry
[Verse 10]
You may not know how to pray, but He loves you when you try
So, raise your voices high and the Lord will hear you (Yeah)
Hear you (Ooh, yeah)
Oh, raise your voices high and the Lord will hear you (Yeah)
Hear you (Ooh, yeah)
Oh, raise your voices high and the Lord will hear
[Verse 11]
I've tried Him in the mornin', tried Him in the noon day
Tried Him in the midnight hour
Yeah
I'm a witness, oh, He'll do the same for you
