The Staple Singers - Are You Sure (1967) lyrics
[The Staple Singers - Are You Sure 1967 lyrics]
Haven't been answered?
Now think, brother think
Are you sure your prayers
Haven't been answered?
Now think, singer think
And don't you dare
Say the good Lord didn’t hear you
He hears and sees everything you do
Start right now and take the inventory
You'll come up with a different story
Because He sees every move you make
Every waggle of your head
Every wink of your eye
He hears thе laugh you're laughing
And hears tears you cry
You may not know how to pray
But Hе loves you when you try
So raise your voices high
And the Lord will hear you, hear you
Because He sees every move you make
Every waggle of your head
And wink of your eye
He hears the laugh you're laughing
And hears tears you cry
You may not know how to pray
But He loves you when you try
So raise your voices high
And the Lord will hear you, hear you
Are you sure
You haven't been answered?
Now think, you'd better think
Are you sure, real sure
You haven't been answered?
Now think, sister think
Don't you dare
Say the good Lord didn’t hear you
He hears and sees everything you do
Start right now and take the inventory
You'll come up with a different story
Because He sees every move you make
Every waggle of your head
And wink of your eye
He hears the laugh you're laughing
And hears tears you cry
You may not know how to pray
But He loves you when you try
So raise your voices high
And the Lord will hear you, hear you
Raise your voices high
And the Lord will hear you, hear you
Raise your voices high
And the Lord will hear
I’ve tried him in the morning
Tried him in the noon
Tried him in the midnight hour
I’m a witness
