Opinions opinions everywhere
voices all around.
We go looking for answers
all we get is sound.
“God wants you to do this.”
“I think you should do that.”
Our mother, brother, workmates…
all their words fall flat.
Our own opinions figure in
possibly worst of all
when we believe our minds are tainted
by a prehistoric fall.
So we run in mental circles
til we exhaust our little minds.
Forced to block out the cacophony–
ears plugged, eyes closed, we’re blind.
God release us from this prison
of our own creation…
We thought that thoughts could save us.
Let your peace be our salvation.
May we stop forming these judgments
on everyone else’s walk!
Let us shut our mouths and
Close our ears to all this idle talk.
Remind our frantic hearts
you are Peace hidden within;
Attune our ears to hear
The Divine Opinion.
