Transition

So hard to explain
Why we return
To the ways of the world
Away from what’s learned.
Our hearts grow cold
We say it doesn’t matter
Indulging ourselves
As the glass walls shatter.
We make it okay
Because God forgives
Never acknowledging
Where sin really lives.
We’re hugging the corpse
And can’t let it go
We say we love Him
But when will it show?
We’ve got to repent
Let God have control
On our knees begging,
“Bring peace to our soul!”
The knowledge that lives
In our hearts is what counts
Not the stuff in our heads
That we always renounce.
So, God, bring a change
Let the transition happen
From the head to the heart
So that we may take action,
Serving You without shame
And helping souls heal
You live within us
And You are what’s real.
