Their chains were fastened tight
Down at the jail that night
Still Paul and Silas would not be dismayed
They said, Its time to lift our voice, sing praises to the Lord
Lets prove that we will trust Him come what may
God wants to hear you sing
When the waves are crashing 'round you
When the fiery darts surround you
When despair is all you see
God wants to hear your voice
When the wisest man has spoken
And says, Your circumstance is as hopeless as can be
That's when God wants to hear you sing
He loves to hear our praise on our cheerful days
When the pleasant times outweigh the bad, by far
But when suffering comes along
And we still sing Him songs
That is when is we bless the Father's heart
God wants to hear you sing
When the waves are crashing 'round you
When the fiery darts surround you
When despair is all you see
God wants to hear your voice
When the wisest man has spoken
And says, Your circumstance is as hopeless as can be
That's when God wants to hear you sing
