Lyrics
Who Hears Their Cries
Matthew 18: 3 ©2009Karl Hecky
G C G D
Off to work past the park today, started just like any other day.
G C G D
But for the one who sat alone, all the children there were playing.
G C G D
It’s a lonely child that I see, who’s voice that I hear saying.
G Bm
Who hears the cries of the lonely children?
F G
Who shines a light to guide their way?
G Bm F C G
Who’s hands are big enough to hold the pain, And wipe their tears away?
G C G D
So many times in this world today, we turn our heads and look the other way.
G C G D
There’s always someone left behind, with a heart that has been broken.
G C G D
Are you that child left in the dark, with tears that fall unspoken?
(repeat 1st. chorus)
C G C G
God hears the voice of children, cause they speak with open hearts.
C G C D (hold)
Turn from sin and become children, so you don’t get left behind.
D C G C G
Who hears the cries? Who hears their cries in the night?
G C G D
Who hears the cries of the children?
D/G G Bm
God hears the cries of the lonely children.
F G
God shines a light to guide their way.
G Bm F C G
God’s hands are big enough to hold the pain, And wipe their tears away.
(repeat 1st. part of bridge, then follow with 2nd. chorus, repeating last line)
