Whisper To Me.

  

I am kneeling in the shadows near the garden of Your heart

I am longing for the warmth I feel when You show me where You are

My heart’s fluttering like a startled dove at the very thought of You

And dear precious Lord, my Saviour, please show me what to do.

You see I have a feeling that all is not what it should be

I don’t know if I’ve hurt You or there’s a sin I cannot see

But something now is missing, not just my heart that’s missed a beat

So I’m here Lord and I’m waiting and I’m kneeling at Your feet.

I know I have a habit of not telling all to You

I know You know that I know every little thing I do

But if I’ve missed Your still small voice or kept You out of things

Then I’m sorry, really sorry, Lord, may I know You’re listening?

I’ve asked a precious friend sometimes if ‘we’ are both O.K?

And I’d like to ask the same of You though it’s a weird thing to say

I know You hear and love me and You’ve forgiven me before

But I need Your reassurance while I kneel to pray some more.

So I’m kneeling in the shadows near the garden of Your heart

I am longing for the warmth I feel when You show me where You are

Would You please sit beside me; hold my hand as You used to do

While You whisper to my trembling heart, “Child, I’ve forgiven you”.
