I heard a freight train out across the way I heard a woman sing Amazing Grace I heard a night bird call to its mate When I heard you whisper my name
I heard freedom break its chain I heard a heart beat where once no sound remained I heard angels rise and praise When I heard you whisper my name
[Chorus:] I heard music bring a heart of stone to tears I heard peace ring like an anthem through the years And I heard hatred fall from grace When I heard you whisper my name
Beating softly against the waves Fell a sound of an early morning rain And though the lightning and thunder came I still heard you whisper my name
[Chorus]
And I heard angels rise and praise When I heard you whisper my name
