Listening

Verse 1
Listening is the doorway
Where the quiet starts to bloom,
Where the heart begins to open
Like a candle in a room.
Listening is the moment
When the noise begins to fall,
And the soul remembers softly
Why it ever came at all.
Chorus
Listening has always been devotion,
Listening has always been a prayer,
Listening is how the soul remembers
Where it came from,
Why it’s here,
And the Love that holds it near.
Listening is the way back home.
Verse 2
Listening is the stillness
Where the ancient truths return,
Where the whisper of the Holy
Teaches what the heart must learn.
Listening is the river
Where the hidden currents flow,
Where the breath becomes a teacher
And the silence starts to glow.
Chorus
Listening has always been devotion,
Listening has always been a prayer,
Listening is how the soul remembers
Where it came from,
Why it’s here,
And the Love that holds it near.
Listening is the way back home.
Bridge
Oh, the world grows loud around us,
Oh, the mind forgets its light,
But the soul keeps calling gently
In the middle of the night.
Every time we turn toward quiet,
Every time we choose to hear,
Something ancient stirs within us—
Something holy,
Something clear.
Final Chorus
Listening has always been devotion,
Listening has always been a prayer,
Listening is how the soul remembers
Where it came from,
Why it’s here,
And the Love that holds it near.
Listening is the way back home.
Outro
Listening is the blessing,
Listening is the start,
Listening is the place the Divine
Speaks softly
To the heart.
