A still small voice
It was calling, forcefully but almost inaudibly
A still small voice
I had to follow, by choice but submissively
That still small voice
I had to follow, faithfully but uncomprehendingly
That still small voice
It came softly, unexpectedly but almost inevitably
A challenge of faith
It was calling, forcefully but almost inaudibly
A challenge of faith
I had doubts, would I buckle submissively
to that challenge of faith?
I was shaken, would I sink uncomprehendingly
under that challenge of faith?
It came softly, unexpectedly but surely inevitably
His still small voice
It was calling, reassuringly but almost inaudibly
His still small voice
I struggled to follow, by choice and determinedly
That still small voice
I found strength, anointed uncomprehendingly
By that growing voice
It came strongly, expectedly and almost inevitably
A redeeming voice
It was calling, gently but forcefully
An empowering voice
I had to speak, by choice but submissively
The message of that voice
I had to share, faithfully and comprehendingly
The message of that voice
It came softly, unexpectedly but almost inevitably
A still small voice
It was calling, forcefully but almost inaudibly
A still small voice
They had to follow, by choice but submissively
That still small voice
They had to follow, faithfully but uncomprehendingly
That still small voice

He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches.”
Matthew 13:31-32
