Yes, yes, yes, yes, Lord, yes

Oh, yes, my soul, my soul says yes



If I were you, I would say yes, speak, Lord. Speak to me.

Oh, Speak, Lord. Won't you speak to me?

I was so blind, I was so lost until you spoke to me

Oh, speak, Lord. Speak, Lord. And hear my mind,

Oh, with your word, heal my soul

Oh, speak, Lord. Speak to me. Speak, my Lord.

I love you, Lord. Save my soul



Can't sleep at night and you wonder why

Maybe God is trying to tell you something

Crying all night long, something's gone wrong

Maybe God is trying to tell you something



Oh, you can't sleep at night and you sure wonder why

Maybe god is trying to tell you something



Trying, trying, trying, trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying

Maybe God is trying to tell you something

Maybe God is trying to tell you something

Maybe God is trying to tell you something

Maybe God is trying to tell you something



Lord, He's got to tell you something

Lord, He's got to tell you something. I hear you, Lord

Maybe God is trying to tell you right now, right now

I'm gonna praise your name

I praise your name

Speak to me, Lord

Maybe God is trying to tell you something right now, right now,

Right now

Thank you, Lord

Maybe God is trying to tell you something right now

Right now, right now. Thank you, Lord
