"Crying Out (Lift Up Your Voices)" lyrics

Oh, lift up your voices
Give it a shout
Oh, lift up your voices
And break through the crowd

Can't You hear us?
We're crying out, crying out
Oh, we're crying out to You
We're crying out, crying out
Oh, we're crying out to You

God, open my eyes
Let me see what You want me to see
I was living in lies
Show me love that you want me to be

I need Your help every day in the morning
When you tell me, "Keep going."
When you show You're the one
Father, Spirit and Son

Fighting for peace
Lord, pour Your grace out on me
Been on my mind for two weeks
Was out of line out of reach

I need You every day
To give me all that I need
When You broke the veil
And You paid the bail
And I can live to tell

Oh, lift up your voices
Give it a shout
Oh, lift up your voices
And break through the crowd

Can't You hear us?
We're crying out, crying out
Oh, we're crying out to You
We're crying out, crying out
Oh, we're crying out to You

Been hesitant with my steps
Catching up with my breath
Since Friday night I been falling short
And been wondering what's next

You can tell I'm giving my all
Tryna answer the call
Feel it all in my bones
I know I'm not all alone

Seen so much back then in my past life
I ain't tryna live fast life
Had to move some things right
Tryna hit notes like bag pipes

Me and my Lord on check like Nike
Told me to do it and I got right
And I got right
Lift your voices
We sing

So here we are
Arms wide open
Crying for the hurt and the beaten and the broken
Living in the shadows
Praying that You'd be near

So, lift up your voices
Shout like you mean it
Top of our lungs
From rooftop screaming
We're not forgotten
As long as You are here

So, lift up your voices
Give it a shout
Lift up your voices
And break through the crowds

Can't You hear us?
We're crying out, crying out
Oh, we're crying out to You
We're crying out, crying out
Oh, we're crying out to You
