Stories with Faces


Listen, 

Hear the story. 

Hear the tales of love, 

Tales of hate, 

Tales of glory.

Never knowing 

Where you're going, 

Without a light showing,

showing you the way home. 

Search, 

Find the story, 

Find the tales of love, 

Tales of hate, 

Tales of glory. 

Let them guide you 

Let them lead you

Let them heal you, 

Let them take you home. 

Faces have stories, 

Find those faces, 

Seek them out-

Out of the dark, 

Dig until you meet them 

Face-to-face. 

Open hearts await an open heart

To hear, 

To find, 

To love. 

Hear the story. 

Find the story. 

Love the story.

Understand it, 

Feel it in the depths of your soul

Until it takes over, 

Pulls you under, 

But saves you all the same. 

Let the stories with faces inspire, 

Transpire

Before your eyes

And listen.
