Essence Of Me If you feel a breeze touch your face Or almost detect a delicate trace If there’s a hint of perfume in the air Put out your hand I’ll be there I’m waiting in everything you do Feel me there close to you Can you detect the hint of me? Laying over your soul so lightly If you feel the heat begin to flow Or you see a soft fading shadow If the curtains seem to restlessly stir When you’re sure no one is actually there Don’t be disturbed it’s only me Coming to visit you spiritually I’m there in the touch of this The soft whispers of a tracery kiss If you feel a touch of soul’s delight Whispering over you in the night If you catch an almost glimpse of me Drifting over your room silently Breathe in the essence of my touch Feel me flowing though you as such Where you are I’m there too Drinking in the thought of you Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |
