Cecelia Weir - Hand Writing On The Wall

There is a hand
That wrote on the wall
Its visibility was amazing to see.
But after the shock
Was just a beginning
For no one knew
What the writing could be.

So they got Daniel
To read it
To tell them what it said.
So what is it saying today?
The murder and the rape
The abused young and the aged
What message is being relayed.

The walls of distruction
The prejudices of pain and confusion.
The shape this world is in
No its not an illusion.
You see the writing
You fear something each day
Even health issues are held at bay.

Deliverance will come
But not as the world know it
Its not found in general reform.
Its not in the wars
Its not in the churches
But inside the heart
Thats opened to be transformed.
