Story behind the song
This song was written to express that searching and confusion that we all feel sometimes, distinguishing the voice of God from all the other competing voices. But it is also a song of hope, that when we do hear God speak it is like being held in ageless arms. Claire Taylor did the speech for me, and Helen Turner helped sing on this track.
Lyrics
Speech:All my life I've wanted to hear God's voice, Sometimes I think I feel Him but I'm never really sure. But you always know, God took you by the hand and brought you here. I don't know what God wants from me. Song: To hear your voice To see your heart To feel surrounded By ageless arms My God you see My silent dreams Come make this Heaven A reality. Speak to me Jesus Speak to me.
