When thou prayest before others, observe on what thou bestowest thy chief care and zeal, whether in the externals or internals of prayer, that which is exposed to the eye and ear of men, or that which should be prepared for the eye and ear of God; the devout posture of thy body, or the inward devotion of thy soul; the pomp of thy words or the power of thy faith; the agitation of thy bodily spirits in the vehemency of thy voice, or the fervency of thy spirit in heartbreaking affections. These inward workings of the soul in prayer, are the very soul of prayer.
William Gurnall

Listen

Another sleepy Sunday, safe within the wallsOutside a dying world in desperation callsBut no-one hears the cries, or knows what they’re aboutThe doors are locked within, or is it from, without…

Looking through rose colored stained glass windowsNever allowing the world to come inSeeing no evil and feeling no painMaking the light as it comes from within, so dim…

Out on the doorstep lay the masses in decayIgnore them long enough, maybe they’ll go awayWhen you have so much you think, you have so much to loseYou think you have no lack, when you’re really destitute

Looking through rose colored stained glass windows – stained glass windows!Never allowing the world to come in – they won’t lemmie come in!Seeing no evil and feeling no pain – no feel, no pain!Making the light as it comes from within, so dim – the light’s so dim!
– So dim – the light’s so dim!

Looking through rose colored stained glass windowsNever allowing the world to come inSeeing no evil and feeling no painMaking the light as it comes from within, so dim, so dim!
