Verse 1
To You, O Lord, I cry out
For Your arrows pierce me deeply, deeply
For Your hand is heavy on me
Because of my sin
But Lord keep me, keep me, keep me
I am in trouble, I am in trouble
My iniquity is over my head
My flesh is weary from convictions convincing
And I have been weeping all night in my bed
Chorus
It’s the sound of a heart crying out to God
And the sound of His heart calling back to you
It’s the sound of a heart crying out to God
And the sound of His heart calling back to you
Verse 2
All of my tears You hold in Your bottle
Like a sentimental thing
My tears of repentance You hold like a treasure
Like a sweet offering
All of my sighing reaches Your ears
You know that I love You
So help me, help me, God
Bridge
And the lonely You will comfort
And the broken You will heal
All my sighing reaches Your ear

Behind the Song:
"It’s actually from Psalm 31, nearly word for word during at least the first couple of verses, and I’d say this song has my favorite overall musical feeling thanks to all the guitars. It’s about the genuine repentance and sincerity King David had, so much so that God didn’t forsake him. Even though he struggled, he wanted to be right with God and I just love the language of the words, which are also so personal to me. Even when we don’t know the words to say, God hears every sigh and groan because He’s that close to us!" - Misty
