My Grateful Heart

When I’m there with you, I see your light,

On sunniest day or darkest night.

I feel your warmth, when cold sneaks near;

I smell your fresh, when you are here.

And oh, for the sweetness of your most gentle kiss;

It is all of this, which I often miss.

For when we’re apart, I hold one truth most dear,

That you are truly God’s beloved and he holds you very near.

And this is the reason that from our very start,

I entrust you to carry my very grateful heart.
