What have I become? / What mercy have I shown without Your love? / ‘Cause time and time again / A broken man, I stand, only on Your love // Hear our cry with our hands lifted high / All strength and might comes from You / Only You / So gentle whisper come, fill these hollow lungs / Fill them with Your life / Though time and time I fail with bruised and broken hands / I’m reaching for Your love / I keep on reaching for Your love // It comes from You, my God / Only from You, my God / All comes from You, my God / All from You, my God // Oh, so hear our cry with our hands lifted high / All strength and might comes from You / (All power is Yours, God) / Oh, hear our cry with our hands lifted high / All strength and might comes from You / Oh, It comes from You

Behind the Song:
“The song “Hear Our Cry” was a very pivotal point in the band’s early journey. In the fall of 2007, we were confused about the direction the band was going. We forgot to seek God’s will for the band. When the lyrics to this song were written, they came from a “What have we become” state of heart. We let our own pride and ambitions overshadow the very reason we started this band - to glorify and carry out the Gospel. We cried out to God to use us for His glory again. In doing this, we found an intimacy with God that we had forgotten. We recognized that when you acknowledge Christ as being your complete strength and might, He can use you to do great things for His glory.” – Sam Hancock (Luminate)
