Love of my heart, my stream runs dry;
O Fountain of the heavenly hills,
Love, blessed Love, to Thee I cry,
Flood all my secret hidden rills.
Waters of love, O pour through me,
I must have Love: I must have Thee.
Juvenile Northern Mockingbird textured with kk_printed
Lord, give me love, then I have all,
For love casts out tormenting fear.
And love sounds forth a trumpet call
To valiant hope; and sweet and clear
The birds of joy sing in my tree,
Love of my heart, when I have Thee.

ReplyDeleteHi June! My original comment got cut off. I have a sore finger which is playing havoc with my typing!
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of the cardinal. So majestic. They always look so strong.
I would love the chance to soar with the birds, and to touch the sky and the hand of the Creator. What a beautiful image you have presented here of desiring God, desiring love.
