The Sound of a Life Changing Songtext

von Matthew West

I heard it all from the cheap seats
Assembly Hall Arena, Champaign, Illinois
Just a poor college boy making noise
Writing my first songs

Steven Curtis up on stage, singing "speechless"
Left me speechless and amazed
Tears rolling down my face
I heard a still small voice say,
"That's gonna be you someday

Telling the world about amazing grace
Telling the world about a God who saves"
Something inside me came alive that day
I've never been the same

Can you hear the sound
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace how sweet the sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing (The sound of a life changing)

Now the stage is under my feet
And you're in the crowd looking at me
Singing "child of the one true King"
And when I hear you sing
I can't help but think

Could this be your defining moment
The moment you decide to cross that line
And leave the past behind, yeah I'm no Billy Graham
But I come as I am, and you know, that you can too

I'm telling the world about amazing grace
Telling the world about a God who saves
Does anybody wanna feel alive today
I promise you we'll never be the same

Can you hear the sound
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace how sweet the sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing (The sound of a life changing)

It's the sound of a tear drop touching the floor
It's an I don't wanna live this way anymore
The sound of a first-time whispered prayer
It's a Jesus I just need You here
The sound of a nail through the hands of grace
The sound of a stone being rolled away
The sound ringing out from an empty grave
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Can you hear the sound
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace how sweet the sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
Amazing grace how sweet the sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
Amazing grace how sweet the sound of a life changing
