Verse 1:
 
              C9                  Em 
How do you explain, how do you describe 
                       C9          D/F# 
A love that goes from East to West 
                           G 
And runs as deep as it is wide 

                   C9                          Em 
You know all our hopes, Lord You know all our fears 
                C9               D/F# 
Words cannot express the love we feel 
                        G 
But we long for You to hear 

 
                   C9                      
So listen to our hearts,  
(Oh Lord, please listen)  
                 Em 
Hear our spirit sing   
(And hear us sing) 
                       C9   D/F#       
A song of praise that flows 
(A simple song of praise) 
                       G 
From those You have redeemed 
(From those you have redeemed) 
                 C9      
We will use the words we know  
   D/F#               Em    D/F#    C9 
To tell You what an Awesome God You are 
                    C9                       D/F#    
But words are not enough to tell You of our love 
                   G 
So listen to our hearts 


Verse 2:
 
                          C9 
If words could fall like rain 
                    Em  
From these lips of mine 
                  C9          D/F# 
And if I had a thousand years 
                          G 
I would still run out of time 
                          C9 
But if You listen to my heart 
                  Em 
Every beat would say 
                   C9                      D/F# 
Thank you for the life, thank you for the truth 
                   G 
Thank you for the way
