Are You Listening (Kirk Franklin Presents Artists United For Haiti)

Are You Listening? (I was hungry... You fed me. Naked... you clothed me. They will know us by our love.) Can't image how it felt as you lay there Through the dark, through the heat, through the cold. With your friend, by your side Held his hand and watched him die And you cried as you prayed for his soul. I can't imagine how it felt as you stood there Through the winds that would just not go away. Kiss my wife. Tell my son, 'My work on Earth is done.' You're the One that can still hear them say... Is there anybody out there listening? And does anybody know my name? No, my friend we were not there, But we're here and we care... And yes, we feel your pain. And yes, we feel your pain. I can't image how you felt as you sat there, Trying to hide the fear upon your face. As the Earth begins to cry And you ask the preacher, 'Why?' Tonight, we can hear the children say... Hear them say... Is there anybody out there listening? And does anybody know my name? No, my friend we were not there But we're are here and we care And yes, we feel your pain. And does anybody out there know me? (Do you know me?) Can you stop the clock, make this go away? (Make it go away) No, that cross you cannot bare But God can and He cares And yes, HE feels your pain. And yes, HE feels your pain. Please can anybody see, Because my faith is getting weak Don't know how much more I can take Hear my heart and please don't desert me Is there anybody out there listening? And does anybody know my name? Oh, my friend we were not there But we're here and we care And yes, we feel your pain. Is there anybody out there listening? (Does anybody know?)

Ooo... and yes, He feels your pain. Yes, He feels your pain. (Thank you, Jesus) (The clock is ticking. We hear you. Oh my, oh my. We see you.) He's got the whole world in His hands. He's got the whole world in His hands. (You and me sister. You and me brother. My, my...) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooo, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah. -Kirk Franklin & Friends
