If you want to whisper
then I'm ready to hear
If you say, I will trust and obey
If you must delay then I'll hang on today.
And if you want to shout Lord
So I hear your voice
If you want to shake
me to the core then I'll say
I'd rather be shaken than stand in your way
So here's what I pray
I won't harden my heart
Bring me down to my knees
Not my will but yours please
Take this crown from my head
into your hands instead
Take this rock from my chest
I need heart made of flesh
Let me hear you this day
Bend my ear look my way
If you whisper in breezes
or cry from the hills
I will wait if it pleases, I'll listen until
You have gained my attention
and until I know, I have heard from my maker
Heard His voice, I will not let go
And if you want to lead me
Where I fear to tread, if you go
Lord you know that I'll go
If that's what you say
There ain't no other way
so here's what I pray
I won't harden my heart
