whisper my name

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

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

and i heard angels rise and praise

when i heard you whisper my name
