You Heard My Cry

This praise and worship song is inspired by Psalm chapter 40, a song of celebration proclaiming God's perpetual deliverance and the promise that He will always come through for us, no matter what.

I hope this song inspires and blesses you, as the message of patience, trust, foundation, salvation, praise and blessing, have inspired me again and again.

Please share this with whomever you think needs a reminder of our Lord's enduring love, steadfast deliverance and faithfulness.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I was sinking deep
Mud and mire on my shoes
My heart was full of fear
My voice thin and bruised

I waited in the dark
You didn’t pass me by
You leaned down through the pain
And answered my cry

You reached down deep
And pulled me high

[Pre-Chorus]
You heard me
You listened
When I could barely speak
You found me
You caught me
Right there in the deep

[Chorus]
You heard my cry (cry!)
You pulled me up
You heard my cry
You filled my cup
I will wait on You
You heard my cry
And always stayed true

[Verse 2]
You set my feet on solid rock
You taught my legs to stand
Where shame told me to “stay down”
Your grace took hold of my hand

Now every scar can sing
Of mercy in the night
The One who rescued me
Will take me nigh

You reached down deep
And pulled me high

[Pre-Chorus]
You heard me
You listened
When I could barely speak
You found me
You saved me
Right there in the deep

[Chorus]
You heard my cry (hey!)
You pulled me up
You heard my cry
You filled my cup
I will wait on You (wait on You)
You heard my cry
And said “I will make you new”

[Bridge]
So I will not let go
Though the valley treads long
Your promise holds me fast
Your love makes me strong

I will trust Your hand
I will trust Your way
What You started in me
You will complete someday

[Final Chorus]
You heard my cry
You pulled me up
You heard my cry
You filled my cup
I will wait on You!

You heard my cry (cry!)
You pulled me up
You heard my cry
I’m standing now
I will wait on You (I’ll wait on You)
You heard my cry (oh!)
I’m standing now
You heard my cry
You brought me out (brought me out!)
I will wait on You!

You heard my cry
And made me new

You heard my cry
And made me new!

To God be all the glory.

New Creation Rising In You

I wrote this praise song, inspired by 2 Corinthians chapter 5. I hope it inspires and blesses you, as the message of hope and reconciliation in Christ Jesus inspires and blesses me. 

Please share it with whomever you think needs inspiration and encouragement. Share it with the broken, the tired, the ones who lost their fire. Let them lift their eyes. Their help is here. Grace is stronger than their fear.

I designed the album art to reflect the recent liberation of 46 million Persian women from the bonds of religious persecution, subjugation and tyranny.

To God be all the glory.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I was the shadow in my own drama
No peace, only trauma
Heart like a room with a locked door
Hopes and dreams spread on the floor
You found me staring at the ceiling
Whispered my name in the quiet
Pulled all the pieces I was hiding
Held every shard to Your light

[Chorus]
You make all things new
Every crack
Every bruise
Every burned-out room
You breathe life into
The ashes
All the ruins I walked through
I am not my shame (I am held)
I am held
I am healed in Your perfect name
Jesus
I am new
New creation rising in You

[Verse 2]
Some days the memories still haunt me
Old ghosts knocking at my door
But You keep your hands cradled
Right where my fear outpours
You write Your promise on my heart
Stronger than the storms I feel
You say
“Child, I will not leave you
What I have spoken
I’ll fulfill” (hey)

[Chorus]
You make all things new (every scar)
Every scar
Every pain
Every occupied tomb
You breathe light into
What was dim
All the ruins I walked through
I’m not the voices in my head
I am not the words I never said
Jesus
I am new
New creation rising in You

[Bridge]
To the broken
To the tired
To the one who lost their fire
Lift your eyes
Your Help is here
Grace is stronger than your fear
To the doubting
To the hurting
To the one who thinks they’re worthless
Hear Him say
“I died for you
Walk out of your grave
Be new” (oh-oh-oh)

[Chorus]
You make all things new (every wound)
Every wound
Every strain
Every tortured soul
You turn death
Into life!
All the ruins I walked through
I am not my shame (I am held)
I am held
I am healed in Your perfect name
Jesus (Jesus)
I am new (I am new)
New creation rising in You!

[Outro]
New creation rising
From the dark into Your Truth
Every breath a hallelujah!
Jesus (Jesus)
I am new (I am new) 

New creation (new creation)
Rising in You 

Yes, Lord 

I am new
New creation
Rising in You (You)
