I’ve been hearing the Word since I was young
Same old stories, same old songs
I know the verses, I know the lines
I can quote ‘em, but I’m still behind
Is it just noise in my head
Something I heard, something I said
Or is it changing the way I move
When nobody’s watching what I choose
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Am I just listening
Or am I letting it in
⸻
Chorus
Am I still on the milk
Or eating something real
Is the Word just passing through
Or shaping how I feel
Is it in one ear, out the other
Or alive in my soul
Am I hearing the truth
Or am I living what I know
⸻
Verse 2
Hebrews said there comes a time
When you should be teaching, not standing in line
Still needing someone to feed you slow
When you should be walking what you already know
Milk is good when you’re learning to stand
But meat’s for those who train their hands
Good and evil, right and wrong
You don’t discern it by singing along
⸻
Pre-Chorus
It’s not about how much I know
It’s what I do with what I’ve been shown
⸻
Chorus
Am I still on the milk
Or eating something real
Is the Word just passing through
Or shaping how I feel
Is it in one ear, out the other
Or alive in my soul
Am I hearing the truth
Or am I living what I know
⸻
Bridge (Spoken / Half-Sung – weight)
Am I just nodding along
Or letting it mess with my life
Is it sticking in my memory
Ruminating in the quiet
Faith ain’t proven by listening
It’s proven by the way I walk
The Word don’t die in the echo
It lives when obedience talks
⸻
Bridge (Lift – Sung)
Train my senses
Open my eyes
Let Your Word cut deep
Not just sound nice
⸻
Final Chorus
I don’t wanna stay on the milk
I wanna grow up strong
I don’t wanna just repeat the truth
I wanna live it when it’s hard and long
Let it settle in my spirit
Let it shape my goals
I don’t wanna just hear the Word
I wanna walk it with my soul
⸻
Outro
So speak, Lord
I’m listening now
Not just with my ears
But with my life
