The Sound of a Life Changing by Matthew West Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I heard it all from the cheap seats
Assembly Hall Arena, Champaign, Illinois
Just a poor college boy making noise
Writing my first songs
Steven Curtis up on stage, singing "Speechless"
Left me speechless and amazed
Tears rolling down my face
I heard a still small voice say
"That's gonna be you someday..."
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Telling the world about amazing grace
Telling the world about a God who saves
Something inside me came alive that day
I've never been the same
[Chorus 1]
Can you hear the sound?
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song?
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
(The sound of a life changing, changing)
[Verse 2]
Now the stage is under my feet
And you're in the crowd looking at me
Singing "Child of the one true King"
And when I hear you sing, I can't help but think
Could this be your defining moment
The moment you decide to cross that line
And leave the past behind, yeah
I'm no Billy Graham but I come as I am
And you know, that you can too
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm telling the world about amazing grace
Telling the world about a God who saves
Does anybody wanna feel alive today?
I promise you we'll never be the same
[Chorus 1]
Can you hear the sound?
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song?
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
(The sound of a life changing, changing)
[Bridge]
It's the sound of a tear drop touching the floor
It [says?] I don't wanna live this way anymore
The sound of a first-time whispered prayer
It's a Jesus, I just need You here
The sound of a nail through the hands of grace
The sound of a stone being rolled away
The sound ringing out from an empty grave
Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
[Chorus 2]
Can you hear the sound?
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song?
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
I heard it all from the cheap seats
Assembly Hall Arena, Champaign, Illinois
Just a poor college boy making noise
Writing my first songs
Steven Curtis up on stage, singing "Speechless"
Left me speechless and amazed
Tears rolling down my face

The sound of a dream that's waking up inside
Can you hear the song?
The song of a new beginning
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
(The sound of a life changing, changing)

The sound of a life changing
The sound of a life changing
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
Of a life changing
