God Wants to Hear You Sing

Their chains were fastened tight
 Down at the jail that night
 Still Paul and Cylus would not be dismayed
 They said, "It's time to lift our voice,
 Sing praises to the Lord
 Let's prove that we will trust Him, come what may."
 God wants to hear you sing
 When the waves are crashing round you
 When the firey darts surround you
 When despair is all you see
 God wants to hear your voice
 When the wisest man has spoken
 And says your circumstance is as hopeless as can be
 That's when God wants to hear you sing
 He loves to hear our praise
 On our cheerful days
 When the pleasant times out weigh the bad, by far
 But when suffering comes along
 And we still sing Him song
 That is when we bless the Father's heart
 God wants to hear you sing
 When the waves are crashing round you
 When the firey darts surround you
 When despair is all you see
 God wants to hear your voice
 When the wisest man has spoken
 And says you circumstance is as hopeless as can be
 That's when God wants to hear you sing
 God wants to hear you sing
 When the waves are crashing round you
 When the firey darts surround you
 When despair is all you see
 God wants to hear your voice
 When the wisest man has spoken
 And says your circumstance is as hopeless as can be
 That's when God wants to hear you sing
 That's when God wants to hear you sing
 That's when God wants to hear you sing
