The Ears Of Your Heart

[Snowy]

The man, whose coat is torn and tattered,
Hangs his head over what he's become.
He's lost everything that ever mattered,
Can't even remember where he's from.
​

The widow, or abandoned wife,
Has bills she just can't pay.
Her children deserve a better life
Than the one they live today.
​

A child, whose home should be secure,
Lives in fear, both day and night,
Of the fooling around Daddy says is pure
And the way he and Mommy fight.
​

This world is filled with the sick and neglected;
Older versions of you and me.
They are the ones who feel most rejected,
When friendly faces they don't ever see.
​

Let's make an effort to help one of these.
We each have something to give.
Open the ears of your heart to the pleas
Of the ones searching for a reason to live.​

Eze 18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?


Eze 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and
Eze 11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
