Hear These Words

I talk softly to not be heard, Please God’s ears hear these words. Be my guardian and watch my day, Be with me at night and never stray. The slightest hint of your presence gives me strength; To hold my head up high to escape life’s stench, I’m in a nightmare of the world… I can’t be woken by a pinch. Monsters are everywhere…some with Angel faces, Trying hard to steer my tongue… far away from my Graces. I talk softly to not be heard, Please God’s ears hear these words. I’m like prey…there’s many wolves…they all want a piece, Speaking loud would cause attention… And have Evil notice me. Alone I can’t survive… I need your love to cover me. I talk softly to not be heard, Please God’s ears hear these words. When you are with me… I fear no tomorrow; I can raise my voice to all Pain and Sorrow, And give thanks to my Lord for the time let borrowed. Now I feel you with me…I can feel the surge; I feel the need…I must be heard, Evil ears must hear these words. I’m no longer the prey...I will not sit and hide; I will stand my ground and pull deep from inside, The power of God and see world's beautiful side.
