God Speaks

God speaks to us

With every word that lights our hearts

God speaks through us to give some meaning

And reason that our life imparts

And if behind every thought you had

You could see the echoes of your mind

And if those echoes spoke to you

Some purpose there you would find

And if we just believe enough

To leave an opening we find a way

To listen in the place of silence

Where there is an answer there that says

God is present in everything

And in the silence too

The voice that speaks to the deepest part

Of the heart of love in you

And God’s Voice is in the Light you share

That overcomes the hate and fear

And as we let the tide of words rise and fall

We hear the breath of Spirit behind it all

God speaks to us in everything

For in the outlines of life we can learn to be

Finding the answer to the questions

That your mind has asked and your soul can see

The sound of spirit speaks in ways

That we often dissipate

But if you open up your heart

You’ll find you’ll hear what it takes

It could be a song, or in some book we read

or it could be the words  right here

For God speaks to us and if we listen for the truth

 we’ll Find the answers that we need.
