Unforgettable performance by Arthur Hayes on America’s Got Talent. In this moving rendition of his original song, “Do You Hear Me Lord”

Lyrics

Do You Hear Me Lord

I watch the red lamp burn at night

Still hoping for a holy sight

This quiet chapel feels alive

But I am struggling to survive

This mercy I'm not ready for

But still, I kneel upon this floor

Your spirit lingers in the air

Like incense rising in a prayer

Do You hear me, Lord, when the silence starts to burn?

Can I feel You near when my thoughts begin to turn?

I've been waiting, barely breathing, in the grace You used to fill

If You know me like I know You, then I bow beneath Your will

The holy water feels like dew

The pews remember passing through

I walk the aisles we once knew well

But stories only time can tell

A part of me that I won't let go

Is holding to the seeds You sow

Your spirit lingers in the air

Like incense rising in a prayer

Do You hear me, Lord, when the silence starts to burn?

Can I feel You near when my thoughts begin to turn?

I've been waiting, barely breathing, in the grace You used to fill

If You know me like I know You, then I bow beneath Your will

Maybe faith just learns to wait

Outside the narrow Heaven's gate

If You hold me through the night

Then I will walk by faith, not sight

Do You hear me, Lord, when the silence starts to burn?

Can I feel You near when my thoughts begin to turn?

I've been waiting, barely breathing, in the grace You used to fill

If You know me like I know You, then my heart is beating still

Jordan Smith "Stand In The Light"

Stand In The Light

Song by

Jordan Smith

Stand in the light and be seen as we are
Didn't I tell you I hear what you say?
Never look back as you're walking away
Carry the music, the memories and keep them inside
You
Laugh every day
Don't stop those tears from falling
Down

This is who I am inside
This is who I am, I'm not gonna hide
'Cause the greatest risk we'll ever take is by far
To stand in the light and be seen as we are
To stand in the light and be seen as we are

With courage and kindness hold on to your faith
You get what you give and its never too late
To reach for the branch and climb up leaving sadness behind
You
Fight hard for love
We can never give enough

This is who I am inside
This is who I am, I'm not gonna hide
'Cause the greatest risk we'll ever take is by far
To stand in the light and be seen as we are
To stand in the light and be seen as we are

Riding the storms that come raging towards us we dive
Holding our breath as we break through the surface
With arms open wide
With arms open wide

This is who I am inside
This is who I am, I'm not gonna hide
'Cause the greatest risk we'll ever take is by far
To stand in the light and be seen as we are
To stand in the light and be seen as we are

'Cause the greatest risk we'll ever take is by far
To stand in the light and be seen as we are
To stand in the light and be seen as we are
To stand in the light and be seen as we are
