¶Lyrics / Text

1. When the silence takes a voice it may not be soft and mild: after years of muted peace words may thunder, fierce and wild. 2. John came like a storm from God, and a crowd was drawn to hear what the silence had prepared: "Turn to God for God is near!" 3. Near us now, though senses strain, strain to recognize the form God may take and manifest in the silence and the storm. 4. But our hearts search out that form, through the advent of the years, as we turn and turn again and again know God is near. From ''Songs for the Cycle'' ©2004 by Michael Hudson.
