Verse 1
I can hear it in the crackle of a bonfire
And I can hear it in the middle of the ocean water
Oh, I just can’t explain it, but it makes me wanna cry
And I can hear it when the rain falls on my windowsill
On a playground where children’s laughter lives
Oh, I can’t explain it, but it makes me wanna cry
And I can hear it in the busy New York city streets
And I can hear it in the country Georgia fields of green
Oh, I can’t explain it, no, but it makes me wanna cry
Chorus 1
It sounds like grand-momma
Telling you where you come from
Said it’s kinda like laughter
Out of the mouths of your loved ones
Or catching up with an old friend
Reminiscing on back when
It’s like a summer-time sprinkler
Street side with my ice cream cone
Said it sounds like a choir
Singing hymns, hallelujah
It’s the voice of God
Yeah, it can make a grown man cry
Verse 2
I can hear it on the wind of an early morning
When the fog is getting thick and the birds are chirping
Oh, it’s just something I can’t explain, no, but it makes me wanna cry
I can hear it in the hush of a midnight hour
When I’m alone in my room if I’m goin’ under
Oh, I just can’t explain it, no, but it brings me back to life
It’s like the sound of a newborn baby cryin’
Yeah, like the final breath of a loved one passing
Oh, it’s a beautiful thing, yeah, ‘cause it leads me to the light
Chorus 2
It’s like a drive-through movie
Small town with a big screen
Like grilling out in the front yard
Sometimes it’s the simple things
Like story telling with my grandpa
He was so easy to believe
Like when the sun goes up yeah
Sometimes it’s better when the sun comes down
‘Cause there’s just something about the moonlight
And it can make you feel alright
Oh, it’s the voice of God
And it can make a grown man cry
Tag
Yes it can, yes it can
It’s the voice of God
It can make a grown man cry

The deaf ear stills responds to that sound of His voice
The dead man still gets up from the ground because of His voice
Everything responds when He calls (yes)
Everything responds when He speaks (everything yeah)
I come alive when He calls (everything inside of me)
I come alive when He speaks (stands at attention)
Everything stands at attention (ohh)
