If you think the House of God contains the pulpit where you preach,
be aware of ev’ry stair you climb and every word you speak.
Lis-ten-ing is better than each sac-ri-fice you thought you made.
Don’t be like the fools who babble on the road to hell they take.
———-
Hold your tongue when chances come to tell the Lord what’s to be done.
Stay aware of who is where, the power stance of every one.
Speaking in a still, small voice, eternal God has much to say.
You might profit from some silence of your own this very day.
