The T.V. 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 it 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
|
And I need to be humble with nothing to prove
|
And I need Your Word to show me the truth
|
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 a sign, just give me a vision of Heaven
|
That 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
|
|
Stop the world, I wanna get out
|
I need an escape away from this crowd
|
Just to hear You, I need to hear You, Lord
|
|
Stop the world, I'm ready to listen
|
Show me a sign, give me a vision of Heaven
|
That I can hold on to
|
Stop the world, I need some time with You
|
Stop the world, I need some time with You
|
|

Stop The World
