She acknowledges that in order for her life to truly tell His story, she needs to listen to His voice and type what He speaks. She wants her words to expose His glory and to be pleasing to Him. The artist turns down her own volume and turns up her praise for God, making herself a microphone to amplify His words of grace. The chorus, 'Speak Lord, I am listening,' captures the song's message perfectly. She recognizes the sin that God saved her from and rebukes her own need for exhibition, wanting her ambition to only be to be like God. She acknowledges that without Him, there is an emptiness that cannot be filled by the things this world has to offer. The second verse is a reflection of how meaningless these things become without God's presence. She describes her accomplishments as trophies that she dusts off and places on display for others to see.

The first verse illustrates this internal struggle, with the artist admitting to wanting to say her own things and promote her own agenda.

Through the lyrics, the artist portrays the struggle of wanting to speak our own words and promote our own achievements, instead of allowing God to guide us. The song 'Speak Lord' by Hosanna Poetry is a beautiful and powerful piece about the desire to listen to God's voice rather than our own. I take my world and my life off the mentor My heart be pleasing to you, Oh Lord, my Rock and May the words of my mouth and the meditation of May I be the microphone amplifying your words of grace, Only yo can breath new life onto these dead pages. May nothing in this world separate from the joy of knowing you May this horizontal stage never be a vertical barricade, Now I see that when I was without you, it wasnt prettyĪnd I have not come this far just to let pride take over meĪnd thus experience life the way you created me to, Now I see that if your spirit doesn't fill our worlds, Hoped that even if you didnt, I could get away with it. My calenders of what I thought you wanted or atleast I Saying the statements I knew would be impressive,
