THEY TOOK NO NOTE

It could be so easy to be dragged into a safe secure place, but is it secure in Gods eyes. Do not put your trust in princes and nobles--it will come when you least expect it---just when they are saying true peace and security then sudden destruction will be upon them. To hold back is also to let go.

Left standing

watching the train depart

too late to go somewhere

my fault

the journey was not in my heart.

I knew it was right

with the conditions I agreed

but could not make the time

thought I could negoitiate with God

you know what I mean?

I knew all along

it was right it was true

just did not want to leave

what I wanted to do.

Now its too late the train has gone

and the words of the Bible

keep coming on strong.

Just as in Noahs day they took no note,

even when the doors were shut

they thought he was mad

have I done the same thing

thats why I am where I am.

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
