Listen For My Hymn

My tears rain on the suffering world below me

Tyrants’ tongues fan the ignorant flames of hell

Refuse strangles God's creations under the sea

The blood of millions boils under War's savage spell

Cowards hide behind digital walls and people shrink in despair

Yet listen for my hymn drifting softly on the summer breeze

A prayer of hope calling to His children swirls in the air

Be still tonight - let my soothing touch put you at ease

Smell my floral fragrance as I caress your restless soul

Take my hand and we'll glide on a path to glory

Come let me show you joys that will make you whole

Spurn the anguish and distraction and listen to my story

Heed heaven's message and find the good in the world

Reach into my spectral heart and grasp my holy power

A love that began so tiny, now is blinding might unfurled

Let my faith warm you ’til you bloom like a divine flower

Carry my promise and smash your brothers’ bonds of deceit

Now’s the time to reforge that trust lost so long ago

Share a bit of heaven and let Man taste what’s just and sweet

Soar high with my spirit and let your love for others show
