A SOFT WHISPER

A soft whisper,

 

I heard, loudly

 

and then, I knew you cared.

 

 

Your soft, still voice came to me,

 

and I heard it.  Yes,

 

I heard, loudly.

 

 

Your loving caress

 

fell upon my heart,

 

and I heard it.  Yes,

 

 

I knew You were there to impart

 

this mercy and love that soon

 

fell upon my heart,

 

 

Shortly before noon

 

that blessed Sunday morn.

 

This mercy and love that soon

 

 

had my sin, my guilt, my shame torn

 

from my shattered little heart,

 

that blessed Sunday morn.

 

 

I suddenly did hear

 

Your soft whisper,

 

to my shattered little heart,

 

and then, I knew you did care.
