Echoes

Can I breathe free air again?
The fragrant breezes of a better land
Where every note is paved with gold
Where hallelujah anthems don't grow old
I want to learn to sing the way they sing before you

Listen, echoes of mercy from our hearts
Sound like the songs they sing in heaven
Listen, the echoes of mercy from our heart
Sung from the lips of the forgiven
Remember that you made me out of dust
It's only in your promise that I put my trust
It's of your mercy that I sing
It's of my life I make an offering
I want to learn to live the way they live before you

Listen, echoes of mercy from our hearts
Sound like the songs they sing in heaven
Listen, the echoes of mercy from our heart
Sung from the lips of the forgiven
So as you hold the universes
As you ride upon the wings of the wind
Let me speak and know you're listening
I'll bring an offering of everything in me

Listen, echoes of mercy from our hearts
Sound like the songs they sing in heaven
Listen, the echoes of mercy from our heart
Sung from the lips of the forgiven
