take mine

Today my heart
is yours to keep ~
yours to trust
ere your own would fail.
Should tears escape
the songs you sing ~

my heart is yours
so wear it well.

Today my arms
will stretch to hold ~
the loving gift
of who you are.
I know they'll reach
cross many miles ~

a world away
not very far.

Today my smile
shall wear your name ~
to fill the hurt
you bear alone.
Til light shall come
to warm your face ~

always - my heart
shall be your home.

Today and then
ten thousand more ~
for all your days
this one shall beat.
The song you know
we sing so well ~

ere echoes sound
and love repeat.
