Marvin Sapp - Listen Lyrics






I know that it's seeming sometimes that no matter what you do
No matter how hard you work
Struggle to make things better in your life
For some reason you're not getting nowhere
Well I want you to turn to the one next to you and tell him

You tried your way
It didn't work, no
You put Him second
And put you first
You trusted friends
Thought they had your back
And every time you turn around
It seems you're under attack, yeah yeah yeah
But turn to your neighbour and say

See the devil is a liar
No, I'm not gon' die
It's okay to cry
'Cause He's by your side
You gotta stop that hatin'
I know you don't wanna hear it
Gotta fast and pray and listen to the Spirit
(God's tryna tell me something)
He's speaking to your heart right now
(God's tryna tell me something)
Just listen to the Spirit, oh
(God's tryna tell me something)
Hold up, shh
(Listen)

Hm, you lost your job
Your bills are due
And all the people you helped
Did not want to help you
I talked to my mother
(She said pray about it)
I talked to my pastor
(And he said pray about it)
But I was so blinded
I own my disaster
I wish you would just turn to your neighbor
Turning for me

See the devil is a liar
No, you're not gon' die
It's okay to cry
'Cause He's by your side
You gotta stop that hatin'
I know you don't wanna hear it
Gotta fast and pray and listen to the Spirit, oh
(God's tryna tell me something)
He's speaking to your heart right now
(God's tryna tell me something)
Just listen to the Spirit, oh
(God's tryna tell me something)
Hold up, shh
(Listen) ey ey, oh oh

I did everything I could to take away my trouble
And everything I tried did not stop my struggle
Just doing me everyday
Guess I was in my own way
But I'm here to tell you
Without His grace I'm a major failure
So if you got problems
Know that you can't fix it
Just give it to Jesus
Oh can I get a witness
And tell him say
That the devil is a liar
You gotta listen to the Spirit
Woah

(God's tryna tell you something)
Shh, shh, shh
Yes He is, He's trying to get your attention right now
(God's tryna tell you something)
I know you got your own plan, but God's got a better one
(God's tryna tell you something)
Shh, listen
Hmm
God's tryna tell you something
(Tell me, can you hear it)
God's tryna tell you something
(Listen to the Spirit)
God's tryna tell you something
Shh, listen, ye ye yeah
God's tryna tell you something
(Tell me, can you hear it)
God's tryna tell you something
(Listen to the Spirit)
God's tryna tell you something
Shh, listen

You tried your way
It didn't work, no
You put Him second
And put you first

    I know that it seems sometimes, that no matter what you do
    No matter how hard you work, striving to make things better in your life
    For some reason, you're not getting nowhere
    But I want you to turn to the one next ton you
    And tell him
    You tried your way
    It didn't work, no
    You put Him second
    And put you first
    You trusted friends
    Thought they had your back
    And every time you turn around
    It seems you're under attack
    But turn to your neighbour and say
    See the devil is a liar
    No, I'm not gon' die
    It's okay to cry
    'Cause He's by your side
    You gotta stop that hatin'
    I know you don't wanna hear it
    Gotta fast and pray and listen to the Spirit
    (God's tryna tell me something)
    He's speaking to your heart right now
    (God's tryna tell me something)
    Just listen to the Spirit, ohh
    (God's tryna tell me something)
    Hold up, shh
    Listen
    You lost your job
    Your bills are due
    And all the people you helped
    Did not wanna help you
    I talked to my mother (and she said pray about it)
    I talked to my pastor (and he said pray about it)
    But I was so blinded
    I own my disaster
    I wish you were just tell your neighbor to look for me
    See the devil is a liar
    No, you're not gon' die
    It's okay to cry
    'Cause He's by your side
    You gotta stop that hatin'
    I know you don't wanna hear it
    Gotta fast and pray and listen to the Spirit y'all
    (God's tryna tell me something)
    He's speaking to your heart right now
    (God's tryna tell me something)
    Just listen to the Spirit, ohh
    (God's tryna tell me something)
    Hold up, shh
    Listen, they yell, oh
    I did everything I could to take away my trouble
    And everything I tried did not stop my struggle
    Just doing me everyday
    Guess I was in my own way
    But I'm here to tell you, without His grace I'm a major failure
    So if you got problems
    Know that you can't fix it
    Just give it to Jesus, oh can I get a witness
    And tell him say
    That the devil is a liar
    You gotta listen to the Spirit
    Woah, God is
    Shh, shh, shh
    Yes He is, He's trying to get your attention right now
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    I know you got your own plan, but God's got a better one, ooh
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Shh, listen
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Tell me, can you hear it
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Listen to the Spirit
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Shh, listen
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Tell me, can you hear it
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Listen to the Spirit
    (God's tryna tell you something)
    Shh, listen
    You tried your way
    It didn't work, no
    You put Him second
    And put you first

  98. D.... H....

    I'm amazed as I read a lot of these post how people are lifting up R Kelly and he should be lifted up in prayer for salvation and deliverance'. I agree that we should not judge him the bible clearly tells us not to judge one another and we should not but out of all the post I have read I have not heard one person mention all the young ladies who were victimized by R Kelly. These young ladies need prayer to. The bible tells us that our gifts and calling are without repentance but would good it would be for him other then leading others to the Lord but losing his own soul. We should be more concern about his soul than his gift. The reality is if R Kelly was not R Kelly no one would be having this conversation. Please lets do what God really called us as saints to do and be concerned for peoples souls more so than their gifts that God gives each one of us anyway. Lets pray for salvation for R Kelly and for the victims also so that we can see the work of God manifested. God bless.
