The Song of My Heart

I sang
in the quiet hours
of the morning
thinking
nobody could hear me
but you heard me
long before
I sang one word
I did not think
about you listening
I only allowed
the melody of
my joyful heart
to come out
but you heard
every single word
every note
and every melody
and embraced it
with your heart
and right now
at this moment
I feel so grateful
for that!

Lift Up a Song

I lift up a song
spread my wings
and get carried
on the soft wind
of God’s Spirit

My eyes see colors
I have never seen before
and the longer I sing
the more I know
that singing brings me
so much closer to God
than I have ever been before

So I sing
from the depth
of my soul
until every note
has made it
to God’s throne!
