The strongest voice a whispering sound
That overcomes the Devil’s noise—
A sign that by the Lord we’re found,
No longer are we Devil’s toys.
For Devil tries within to play
What is for him a children’s game,
And when he wins we think his way
As we forget our Father’s name.
But through it all with inner ear
Those whispered words still touch our hearts,
And we learn to the Devil fear,
No longer play the game he starts.
Instead, we learn the game of life
That here begins and never ends.
As whispered sounds bring heaven’s light,
Our Lord begins our lives to mend.
Then Jesus touches ears within,
And His voice gives us inner strength,
As Spirit cleanses us of sin,
And we learn to with Jesus think.
Through all, the Father us prepares
To live with him forever more;
As we are saved from Satan’s snare
His voice calls us to heaven’s shore.
