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 away But He is not silent He is not whispering We are not quiet We are not listening He sends a lifeline We keep resisting Him He is not silent We are not listening We 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 away But He is not silent He is not whispering We are not quiet We are not listening He sends a lifeline We keep resisting Him He is not silent We are not listening No, we are not listening We take our daily bread And after we've been fed We take our hearts and turn away But He is not silent He is not whispering We are not quiet We are not listening He sends a lifeline We keep resisting Him He is not silent We are not listening He is not silent He is not whispering We are not quiet We just are not listening He 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 listening But He is not silent
