Lyrics: Cry Of The Afflicted. Heed The Sound.

Echoes ring in my mind
They're crying surrender
Surrender your will

Echoes ring in my mind
A voice that once whispered is growing
And can't be ignored

Decrease my name
The grief that's found in me, you've broken
Increase your name
The grace that's found in me, you've spoken

Hear it clearly declared
This weakness that held me
Is weakness no more

Hear it clearly declared
This whisper of thunder is deafening
Is deafening

Decrease my name
The grief that's found in me, you've spoken
Increase your name
The grace that's found in me, you've spoken

A quiet voice that once I ignored
The catalyst, my reason for standing here now

The voice of the voiceless
Now speaks, now speaks through me
The hope of the hopeless
Your grace is rising up in me

Decrease my name
The grief that's found in me, you've spoken
Increase your name
The grace that's found in me, you've spoken

Decrease my name
The grief that's found in me, you've spoken
Increase your name
The grace that's found in me, you've spoken
