This Brick Wall

One by one through the years A wall was built with pain and fears Brick by brick it was laid On solid ground where it stayed I tried to listen as you spoke to me Words of wisdom and prophecy Yet, I could not hear through the wall Built with strength as not to fall Then one day from the sky I thought I heard an angel cry Weeping softly teardrops fell Gathered from life's wishing well Two more angels joined her side And hand in hand all three cried Thunder bellowed, rain did fall Tearing down my sturdy wall Yet, through the fog I found my way So brick by brick I build today
