Is not a secret withheld from view

Can you hear your spirit speak

Can you see your soul

Do you know what is inside

Or how to make you whole

Can you tell if what you are

Is what you’re meant to be

How do you learn to feel what’s real

Or learn to truly see

You must be willing to let go

Of the things you think are real

These are the things you now touch

That your hands can feel

In a couple years they will be gone

Your riches will fade away

Even you will one day go

On this Earth you cannot stay

But if you wait until that day

To see what you now can’t see

If you do not learn while you are here

You may find you are not free

You may be bound with chains of steel

That are even upon you now

Your soul may fail to flee this world

Because you did not bow

So close your eyes and look inside

Then look up and realize

That your soul is from above

Far above these earthly skies

You are a being so beautiful

Your soul of infinite worth

You were not created by accident

For a purpose you are here on Earth

There is place that some call heaven

Where God and angels dwell

We are God’s children

We lived there as well

God sent us to this Earth

Like Him we must learn to be

We need to feel what is inside

We must learn to truly see

The greatest truth there ever was

Is not a secret withheld from view

But if we cleave to worldly things

We will never know it’s true

For even if we hear it

With these earthly ears

It will fail to penetrate

It will not bring us to tears

Only those who learn to kneel

And acknowledge our God above

Will ever learn the greatest truth

Of the power of God’s love

Only then will we truly know

What is really real

Only then will we begin to see

And what’s inside we will begin to feel
