LOVE WILL SPEAK
Lyric and Music by Pete Strayer

I stilled myself as the evening light was fading,
Grabbed a pen and quieted my mind.
Then an angel friend whispered through my praying,
"Everything will work out in the end."
She kept saying...

"Love will speak when child's ears are listening.
Love will hear a song played from the heart.
Love will heal the sorrows we've been kissing,
And be 'all in all'."

They floated down - like flowers from the heavens,
"All that is, is moving right on time."
And, "the souls we'll keep when breath has finally ended
Will show us sights where once we were so blind."
I keep learning...

"Love will speak when child's ears are listening.
Love will hear a song played from the heart.
Love will heal the sorrows we've been kissing,
And be 'all in all'."
