The Gift

Peace enters my heart with your voice.
Love reenters my soul with you
Though i've never felt your hand
You've touched my heart when it was cold.

Warmth enters my heart with your words.
Joy reenters my soul at the sound of you.
Though I've never seen you face to face
You thrill me with your precence near me.

Security enters my heart with my gift.
Happiness reenters my soul when I give it.
Though all I know of you is your words.
You fill those places deep inside of me.

Peace, love, warm, joy, security, happiness,
Each of these has been away from my heart.
Though I've never been in your presence,
You've returned all of these to my soul.
