An alternative CCM and adult contemporary song, "Does Anybody Hear Her" relates the story of a girl who is being pushed away by the Christian church as well as the message that condemning other people is wrong.
It was produced by Mark A. Miller and recorded and mixed by Sam Hewitt at Zoo Studio in Franklin, Tennessee.
The song was mastered by Richard Dodd and engineered by Dale Oliver and John Lewis Lee III.
The strings on the song were arranged by Bobby Huff and were recorded at Little Big Studio by Boeho Shin and Daewoo Kim.
[10] David McCreary of CCM Magazine felt that the song's "softer cadence" didn't diminish its "hard-hitting message".
[5] John DiBiase of Jesus Freak Hideout described "Does Anybody Hear Her" as "a step backwards from the opening tracks [of Lifesong]" but felt that its musical tone "still works in the grand scheme of the song's message".

[33] They performed it as the eleventh song on their setlist at a concert on February 4, 2010, at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
