If You Listen You Will Hear It


The cocks’ crow
The wind blow

The airplane flying high in the sky
The builders working on buildings nearby

 The bird singing in a tree
The buzzing of a humble bee

The silence, even in a noisy city
The shattering, breaking of glass, what a pity

Voices from the neighbours next door
Footsteps moving over the wooden floor

The rain falling on the window sill
You can hear all these things if you would just sit still

Sit still and breathe, a breath of fresh air
Close your eyes, relax, let your heart give a silent cheer

Clear your mind from all thoughts
Let the silence fill your heart

 In the silence hear His gentle voice
“I love you, you know it; but I have given you a choice

A choice to accept my love and live
A choice to reject it and die in your sin”

If you really listen you will hear all this and more
The Saviour calling, beckoning you to come home
