"A Distant Voice Echos from Afar."

I feel something calling me back
Compelling, adjuring and telling
Flee from indifference and restore
your convictions cause they are
the strength of your life

Return to the things that you know
to be sure in this life and remember
that it has been emptied, swept and
garnished and prepared to be filled
with Light

And it's not for the Here-after NO,
no it's for the here and now where
it all matters

And I saw with great distress of
mind and heart those who could not
depart from the tree that they had
become: one filled with the knowledge
of Good and Evil walking-in woe and
pain

But we knew Good and Evil in this life
and instead we chose the harder road
when a Path of Life was unto us exposed
And the Mystery once hidden was no
longer NO, no more because in Heaven
was opened-up unto us a Door

"And without controversy wonderful is
the mystery of Him: He was manifest in
the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen
of angels, declared unto the Gentiles,
believed on in the world, received up
into glory."
