"Can Anybody Here Me" - Meredith Andrews

Here's the thing about this song...It totally hits home for me because during those times when I question God, sometimes I wonder if He really can hear me. Let me make one clarification: I don't doubt the existence of God. If there wasn't a God, I would've been dead a long time ago. He's done so many radical things in my life that I know 100% that He exists. When I say I question God, I mean that I question whether or not He's right here or a million miles away. Sometimes, I experience feelings of abandonment and feel like God just left me here to fend for myself. I'm finding more and more often that I don't have these feelings. I think it's mostly becuase I go to daily Mass. You can't be closer to God than when He is within you, after you've consumed the Eucharist. That's why it's so important. With the strong devotion I have to the Eucharist, I'm sure I'll write a blog on the importance of the Eucharist later.

Again, the bold lyrics are the ones that hit me the hardest




I’m staring at these empty walls
Wondering when You’ll visit me again
When will You come?
If there is anything at all
Coming in between our love
Please show me, ‘cuz I am barely hanging on

Can anybody hear me?
The silence is deafening
Why do You feel so far away?
When I know You’re here with me
But I just need faith to see
Nothing can separate me from Your love


Believing what I can’t see
Has never come naturally to me
And I’ve got questions

But I am certain of a Love
Strong enough to hold me when I’m doubting
You’ll never let go of my hand

Can anybody hear me?
The silence is deafening
Why do You feel so far away?
When I know You’re here with me
But I just need faith to see
Nothing can separate me from Your love

I will trust in You, even in the moments
I can’t find you, and I will hold on to
Your promises of love
You’ve never failed before

I know You can hear me
When the silence is deafening
Even though You seem far away
And I know You’re here with me
But I just need faith to see
Nothing can separate me from Your love
