Hear and Heed

To those who have the ears to hear

Listen oh listen to the Lord

He is not silent and his voice is clear

And it must not be ignored

The word of the Lord is a lamp and a light

My heart is changed at what I’ve heard

It illumines the mind to the wrong and the right

So I will hear and heed his Holy Word

Chorus 

I will Hear and Heed-

I will hear best when I draw near

This is my greatest need- 

To have a listening ear

The word that many who have gone 

before me have heard 

So be it unto me according to your word

If I’m listening I will hear him

For his word speaks peace to me

If I’m wise then I will fear him

For His word is full of glory

When I hear him I will heed him

Won’t just consider His commands

For I will forever need him

And to trust in his righteous right hand

Chorus 

I will Hear and Heed-

I will hear best when I draw near

This is my greatest need- 

To have a listening ear

The word that many who have gone 

before me have heard 

So be it unto me according to your word
