What My Grandmother Always Told Me

(Religious theme)

Softly, in a high pitched voice like a little bell ringing,

Surely, short and sweet like a little bird singing,

She’d say her heart song to me:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart…”


Sometimes, in a life moment full of joy, I’d think I did so;

Sometimes, with no heart left, I’d offer the last bit of glow.

I’d hear her heart song to me:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart…”


Gently, in the sunset and sunrise of my days,

Intensely, even in a purple haze,

I’d hear her faith in something beyond say:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart.”
