cacophonous voices – v3


all around us, false gods
demons, sirens
idols of flesh
shouting, singing to us,
nothing holy, divine,
of the earth, of the dust

cacophonous voices calling to us
pulling us from the Lord
all around us, evil,
beguiling, wooing
seeking to bring us to the dust
to dust we return

cacophonous voices
seeking to claim us
yet one true voice remaining
God yet calling to us,
Christ, the Spirit,
to turn and follow me
