Someone’s Beating
on the Door of the Gospel Radio Station
I switched on the scanner when the weather turned foul
Hailstones and lightning, and clouds in rotation
Through the static came a voice in a cop-speak growl:
“Someone’s beating on the door of the gospel radio
station”
I tuned then to Jesus on the radio dial
Wondering what drama I might happen to hear
I listened to the three-chord commandos awhile
But never learned the cause of the caller’s fear
Maybe for the music, or from fear of damnation -
Someone wanted in at the gospel station
