Seen and Not Heard

Too many black sheep in the family, oh
Too many stones from a house of glass, yeah, yeah
They've heard the story, they've heard the lines
But talk is too cheap to change their minds
They want to see some vital signs

Convictions in the way we live
Convictions not a narrative
Actions speak a little louder than words

Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
There's too much talk and not enough walk
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard

Oh yeah delayed reaction to hostility
Brings us into reality
'Cause when we answer in our defense
They can see through the false pretense
They want to see some evidence

Commitment no more alibis
Commitment not a compromise
Actions speak a little louder than words

Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
There's too much talk and not enough walk
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard

Let your light show shine in all you do
With an answer near when they come to you
Don't let your mouth start talkin'
Until your feet start walkin'

Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Seen and not heard, seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
There's too much talk and not enough walk
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard

There's too much talk and not enough walk
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
Sometimes God's children should be seen and not heard
