He Who Has Ears, Let Him Hear!

"[This song is like] a dialogue between God and one seeking him...like the person seeking is dealing with self-pity, when all God wants is for him to make forward motion and just let go of the cares of this world. The one seeking feels God is nowhere to be found but God is fighting to be in this persons life." ~Anonymous

A sound ahead from distant peaks
A song that all my brothers sing
It's just out of reach, to join them I need
The wings the heavens denied me

It's like you're deaf to my voice
But I've been here for every moment
Waiting on your call to move

If you could just make a choice
I know you would find me wanting
Only to be close to you

A sound ahead from distant peaks
A song that all my brothers sing

You keep denying my lead 'cause I've tried
I've never pulled back my reach
And I've stayed and I've died
But you keep looking for me where I'm not

I won't be just where you want me to be
You've got to believe
And just trust that I can be everything

It’s like you’re deaf to my voice (but I’m not)
I’ve been here for every moment (and I’ve fought)
Waiting on your call to move (just call to move)
 
If you could just make a choice (oh I have)
I know you would find me wanting (I just want)
Only to be close to you (all of you)

If you would just try and let pry
All your grips on worries
I would come alive in your life
And let you find the flight you're longing [for]

~"Reveries of Flight" by Oh, Sleeper ("Christian" metal band)
