Matthew West - Stop The World lyrics

rate me

The TV is talking

The telephone's ringing

The lights are all on

And the radio's screaming

A million distractions are stealing my heart from You

I'm tired and empty

This life is relentless

It weakens my knees

And breaks my defenses

It's wearing me down and I'm desperate to hear from You

Stop the world I wanna get out

I need an escape away from this crowd

Just to hear You speak to me

I need to be still before I make a move

I need to be humble with nothing to prove

I need Your Word to show me the truth

And I need time, precious time

Stop the world I wanna get out

I need an escape away from this crowd

Just to hear You speak to me

Stop the world I'm ready to listen

Show me sign, give me a vision of heaven

I can hold on to

Stop the world I need some time with You

Before I can find my voice

I need to hear Your voice

Above all the senseless noise
