The people said this desert never ends   We have no bread, our throats are dry   Our heads are heavy and our feet need rest   Has He left us here to die?      And we've forgotten all His words   As if we never heard   We take our hearts and turn away      But He is not silent   He is not whispering   We are not quiet   We are not listening      He sends a lifeline   We keep resisting Him   He is not silent   We are not listening      We wander through this world in disbelief   Shake our heads at every tear   Searching endlessly for some relief   Has He left us dying here?      But we've forgotten all His words   Pretend we never heard   We take our hearts and turn away      But He is not silent   He is not whispering   We are not quiet   We are not listening      He sends a lifeline   We keep resisting Him   He is not silent   We are not listening   No, we are not listening      We take our daily bread   And after we've been fed   We take our hearts and turn away      But He is not silent   He is not whispering   We are not quiet   We are not listening      He sends a lifeline   We keep resisting Him   He is not silent   We are not listening      He is not silent   He is not whispering   We are not quiet   We just are not listening      He sends a lifeline   We keep resisting Him   He is not silent   We are not listening   No, no we are not listening   I said we are not listening      But He is not silent
