He heard me

He heard you
When your eyes were closed and your head held low
He kept the promise that he made
For the times he had to lay down and die
He held you
And showed you how to keep hope alive, alive
Keep hope alive

And when the caged bird sings
And your eyes lay hold of your dreams
And your heart burns with the kiss that he's given, you will see, you will see

That it's his love, that carried us
It's his love, uh-oh, uh-oh
It's his love that carried us through

When the caged bird sings
And your eyes lay hold of your dreams
And your heart burns with the kiss that he's given, you will see, you will see

That it's his love, that carried us
It's his love, uh-oh, oh
It's his love that carried us through
