The Only Voice        

 

There’s a million voices telling me

All the things that I should be

Crashing down like a stormy sea, oh

 

It tells me “who do you think you are?

Some kind of extra special star?

You better play it safe, or you won’t get far”

 

But I’m not listening to that voice

I learned long ago

The only voice that matters

Is the voice of Soul

 

Speak to me from your pure song

The word, the rock, my King

Other voices fall like leaves

Soul is the real thing

 

So I close my eyes and I listen free

And I put my heart where my heart should be

Oh my love, lead me

 

And I’m reaching out with my desire’s hands

Letting go as the thought expands

Placing myself in the holy hands

 

And in the darkness appears a light

A guiding star in the black of night

A simple thought – the one that’s right

 

The waters that flow in the deepest streams

Reveal a voice that says just what it means

A lamp that lights the way with its clear beams

 

And I will follow where it leads

Let its path unfold

The only voice that matters

Is the voice of Soul

 

Speak to me from your pure song

The word, the rock, my King

Other voices fall like leaves

Soul is the real thing
