Winds Blow and Church Bells Ring

The wind blows and church bells ring in the distance Softly, as if they are singing hymns to my soul Swaying in the wind, the sweet bells toll A spiritual awakening, they whisper psalms in my ears Singing with the breeze,the chimes call me near I approach the threshold and the doors open wide I could feel this mystifying force pulling me inside I felt this inner peace, like id never felt before My soul felt renewed, my heart had been made pure Following the voice I knelt at the alter I cried out LORD I AM NOT WORTHY, I HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER. The voice rang out, "ALL I EVER ASKED IS THAT YOU BELIEVE" Lay down all your burdens and give them to me. I replied “LORD I FEEL YOUR PRESENCE I KNOW YOU ARE TRUE He answered "WELCOME HOME MY CHILD, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU"
