A Song Hits My Soul

Folder: 
Divine Revelation

In the middle of my old church,

a place I hardly recognized anymore.

 

A song started that hit my soul

and touched my heart.

 

As tears filled my eyes,

my voice barely above a whisper.

 

My thoughts elsewhere;

my heart completely closed off.

 

As my emotions took hold,

I simply mouthed the words.

 

Standing stoicly in silence

did not feel right.

 

So my lips moved in sync

with the rest of the congregation.

 

And there was a energy

that only happens in God's sanctuary.

 

My sobs stilled

and my spirit lifted.

 

And maybe there was hope 

for me after all.
