Hypnotism

Hypnotism

Lyricist: Dinah Satterwhite
Composer: Dinah Satterwhite

Today I heard your whisper Lord
So graceful calm and sweet
Reminding me to focus less on things in front of me

The worldly goods around me
With all of their appeal
Had hypnotized my thinking into thinking they were real

Lord wake me from this dream
Break the spell, open my eyes
Shine your light of spiritual truth
So I’m no longer hypnotized

That mesmerism of matter
That shine of silver and gold
Are fleeting, empty, and soon to rust
And leave me in the cold

This trance is hypnotism
It will not shape my course
I won’t be fooled by all the noise
But listen for your voice
And awake
Awake from this hypnotism

The joy that matter promises
Is shallow at its best
I have to see right past the lies and see the truth expressed

I’ll trade the glitter for your grace
To view beyond the veil
Then lift my thought so far above knowing I can’t fail

Lord wake me from this dream
Break the spell, open my eyes
Shine your light of spiritual truth
So I’m no longer hypnotized

That mesmerism of matter
That shine of silver and gold
Are fleeting, empty, soon to rust
And leave me in the cold

This trance is hypnotism
It will not shape my course
I won’t be fooled by all the noise
But listen for your voice

Now I’m awake
Awake from this hypnotism

I’m awake
Awake
