The Ringing In His Ears

As he stood and stared nobody even paid him any mind
For no one really cared nor had the tendency to be kind
So many walked right past and never even took notice
Swallowed by a world so vast one more they won't miss

In still standing there it was this sound he began to hear
Flowing right through the air though it was no where near
Each note striking a chord in waiting for the next to follow
In so thinking of the Lord, he himself began to feel hollow

But he remembered that song those church bells did play
He knew he'd done wrong but he also knew about His Way
So sweet to his heart was this sound as each word he knew
For that's what he found as no longer could he misconstrue

It wasn't the bells or the song, it wasn't anything he'd done
But with much going wrong he took notice of salvation won
In thinking this way in knowing the price the Lord had paid
As if not for that bad day, he would have never of prayed
