Hear My Cry
(Siregar/Gentry)

Verse 1    
Why do we look for answers when our hearts are in despair?
Even Job, Your faithful servant could not understand
I try so hard to follow all Your teachings
and shy away from my sinful ways
We search for explanations on this earth, lost
in our wilderness

Chorus     
Hear this cry of desperation,
hear my cry, I pray each day to You oh Lord
All these trials and tribulations tear my soul,
oh heal me
 
Verse 2    
I have stumbled on this journey, more than I'll ever know
With consequences many, I carry its weight alone
I'm on my knees so like Gethsemane when Your Son
was reaching out to You
We're longing for Your wisdom always and may
Your will be done

2nd Chorus 
Hear this cry of exaltation; hear my cry,
I praise Your name above all names
I give thanks for all the blessings that You bring,
You saved me

3rd Chorus 
Hear the cries from all the nations; hear our cries,
Your flock is calling out to You
We’re alive through Your salvation, take us home

Instrumental

Repeat 2nd and 3rd Chorus
