A Valentine for my Lord <br />In words that I record <br />On paper or book, <br />In poem or story, <br />Devotion or allegory, <br />I pray tells of a love <br />I give to God above <br />Smaller than His for me <br />O Lord, I truly love Thee. <br /> <br />My heart I give to Thee <br />My soul belongs to Thee <br />May I always cling to Thee <br />Do Thou, O Lord, stay with me. <br /> <br />No heart is greater than Thine <br />Thou Who art ever Divine <br />Who gives us His Heart; <br />Praise Thy Mighty Power, <br />O Strong and Holy Tower, <br />Be in us every hour, <br />As on bended knee <br />We pray to Thee, <br />Hopefully. <br /> <br />Remember: <br /> <br />The GREAT HEART of GOD: <br /> <br />Envelops you, <br />Embraces you. <br />Encompasses you, <br />Encapsulates you, <br />Encircles you, <br />Is in front of you, <br />Is in back of you, <br />Is on each side of you, <br />Surrounds you, <br />because <br />GOD LOVES <br />you, <br />For all Eternity, <br />Then, <br />Now, <br />AndForever. <br />~~~~~~~ <br /> <br /> <br />© Mel Patterson, Feb.,2007<br /><br />Mel (Carmela) Patterson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-valentine-for-my-lord/
