I Love You…Joyce…

When first…did the my heart hear these words…

     which floated in on a…visiting…mist?

Was it as a tot…?

             I know not...

     perhaps, it was even before I was…begot?

I only know, that… for me…alone…

              was never…alone

And when I finally accepted Him…and understood…

how grateful I was for…His Blood…on that wood!

Yea, His Tender Voice… over time…

      has sweetened…many a cup…of bitter grime

Have you too, heard Him? No…?!

      but this can’t be so…!

       Oh, I just know you have…

for He calls on…all…with His Love Salve

This is His Mission…He knocks…at all cost…

     having no favorites…wanting none…to be lost!

Bringing with Him…moments of much needed…retreat…

        on roads of peace…He directs our feet 

And once we’ve welcomed Him…it never ends…

     as we’ve made an…Eternal Friend

For this, Dear Jesus…I do rejoice!

    why, even now, after all these years, I still hear …

      Your Voice...

            I Love You...Joyce
