Heavenly Voices
Captivated by Heavenly Voices: A Spiritual Journey by Lorraine Jordan
Lyrics
She wakes before the rising of the sun
She wakes up early, before sunrise.
And just after morning prayer is done
After morning prayer, she begins her day.
She slips away down to the sheltered bay
She goes to a secluded bay.
She's feeling the call is strong today
Feeling a strong inner calling.
She's hearing heavenly voices
Repeated emphasis on hearing heavenly voices.
Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-She's casting her eye upon the waves
She looks at the waves.
Seeing some old familiar shapes
Recognizes familiar shapes in the waves.
And then as the morning light it breaks
The morning light brings joy to her.
A smile it is growing on her face
A smile appears on her face.
She’s hears the mermaids sing
Experiencing a mystical connection, possibly with mermaids and angels.
Just as the church bells ring
-She is lifted on angels wings
-As they dance her around the fairy ring
-Hearing heavenly voices
Continued emphasis on hearing heavenly voices.
Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-She’s making her way back down the path
She returns, collecting flowers for a religious service.
Gathering flowers for the mass
Gathering flowers for mass.
Bowing her head in grateful thanks
Expressing gratitude in prayer.
She’s praying herself into a trance
Entering a trance-like state through prayer.
She’s kneeling on the cold stone floor
Kneeling on a cold stone floor, possibly in a place of worship.
Singing glory to the risen lord
Singing praises to the risen lord.
As she prays forgiveness for her sins
Seeking forgiveness for sins through prayer.
She swears she saw the virgin mother grin
Perceiving a joyful response from the Virgin Mother.
She’s hears the mermaids sing
Continued mystical experiences with mermaids and angels.
Just as the church bells ring
-She is lifted on angels wings
-As they dance her around the fairy ring
-Hearing heavenly voices
Repeated emphasis on hearing heavenly voices.
Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-I want to hear the mermaids sing
Expresses a personal desire to hear mermaids sing.
Just as the church bells ring
Wants to experience the sound of church bells ringing.
Wanna be lifted on angels wings
Desires to be lifted on angels' wings.
As they dance me around the fairy ring
Imagining a joyful dance around a fairy ring.
Hearing heavenly voices
Final repeated emphasis on hearing heavenly voices.
Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
-Heavenly voices
