A PLACE IN MY HEART

by:
Grace E. Easley

There is a place deep down in my heart,
Which has sheltered me many a year,
A stronghold of Faith that defies all the worst
That we're bound to come up against here.

There is a place in my heart full of Hope,
Like a spring in the desert of living,
And its waters are cool and the nourish my soul,
With the joy of unselfish giving.

There is a place in my heart full of Love,
That warms through the coldest night,
Sustaining me always, in spite of my fears,
As I walk toward the tunnel of light.

For I am a child of the Lord, and I know
From the start of the day 'til its close,
That Faith, Hope and Love are dear to His heart,
...And He's given me plenty of those.
