Still Listening

(from :Heaven in the Real World)

Steven Curtis Chapman & Geoff Moore









G		D	    Em7

I would lay me down to sleep

C			D	   G

And pray the Lord my soul to keep

		       D		Em7

And though I never saw Him there

C		D		G

I believe He heard each prayer

        C			     G

For God was great,  And God was good

Am7	       G			C

And I knew if I spoke the words

D7sus		C

He would be listening



G			D	Em7

The years can take us far away

C		    D	       G

>From the simple child like faith

G		D	Em7

But I am longing to return

C		      D		G

To the place where I first learned

         C		  G

That God is great,  and God is good

Am7  G	 C

So, I will speak the words





Chorus:

G		    Em   D   G

God, our Father,  once again

		G    C

I bow my head to pray

        G		      Em  D   G				G        C

You are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I say

G   Am7	B		Em

A prayer for forgiveness,  A desprate cry for help

         D	    G                   C

Or praise flowin from a thankful heart

         Am7	        D		   	C	     G

Like each time before,  I come knowin You're still listening

G	      D	  	Em7

I will never understand

C		     D	        G

How the words of mortal man

G			D	Em7

Can reach the ears of One so pure

C		         D		G

And touch His heart,  They do, I'm sure!

       C			G

For God is great, and God is good

Am7  G     C

And He is love





Chorus

God, our Father,  once again

		 A    D

I bow my head to pray

        A 	      Fm   E/G  A			  A	D	

You are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I say

A   Bm7	C	      Fm

A pray for forgiveness,  A desprate cry for help

      E		  A	  A/C	   D

Or praise flowin from a thankful heart

        Bm7	  E	   		D	     Fm

Like each time before,  I come knowin You're still listening 

Fm            D

You're still listening

Now I lay me down to sleep

And pray the Lord my soul to keep

Though I may not see You there

		E       A/E	A

I believe You'll hear each prayer
