All that's in between
Take my feet
so you can travel to the places you love
Take my hands,
fold them in prayer,
and know god again.
Take my ears and
listen -- the vibration of love surrounds you
Take my lips.
They will whisper, "I love you."
I'll give you my eyes so you can see in this mirror,
your magnificent soul of a saint.
Use my arms when yours are weak
to gift to the world your grace
Use them to embrace
your dreams,
your desires,
your children.
If you find your voice won't cry for help
my lungs will shout for you
And if the burden weighs too much,
take a rest -- I'll carry you.
You can have my heart
when you forget how much I love you.
