We hear so many voices every day,
Telling us what’s right, what’s wrong, what to say.
But sometimes, Lord, we just tune You out,
Chasing words that feed our doubt.
We get hurt by things we don’t understand,
Quick to point instead of lend a hand.
Oh Lord, open up our hearts,
Teach us where forgiveness starts.
Pre-chorus)
Your Word’s the truth that sets us free,
Even when it’s hard for us to see.
(Chorus)
Itchy ears, help us hear You, Lord,
Not just what we want, but Your holy Word.
Guide our hearts to love, not fear,
To grow in faith when the truth is near.
Don’t let pride close what You’re trying to say,
Help us listen and follow Your way.
(Verse 2)
Sometimes correction feels like pain,
But You prune the branch to grow again.
You said, “Be quick to hear, slow to speak,”
So we can walk in grace and keep the peace.
Your Word reminds us how to forgive,
To live the way You called us to live.
Not to take offense or hold a grudge,
But leave the judging to Your just judge.
(Pre-Chorus)
We want to walk in love that’s true,
So teach our hearts to listen to You.
(Chorus)
Itchy ears, help us hear You, Lord,
Not just what we want, but Your holy Word.
Guide our hearts to love, not fear,
To grow in faith when the truth is near.
Don’t let pride close what You’re trying to say,
Help us listen and follow Your way.
(Bridge)
Your Word is sharper than a sword,
Cutting deep, but healing more.
Change our minds, renew our soul,
Until Your truth makes us whole.
(Final Chorus)
Itchy ears, help us hear You, Lord,
Tune our hearts to Heaven’s chord.
Teach us love, teach us grace,
Keep Your Word in every place.
Help us grow in faith each day,
As we follow You and walk Your way.
(Outro)
So when the noise gets loud and near,
Lord, help us hear what You want us to hear.
