Your Name….



Your Name….

    I heard something funny, I wanted you to hear too, so I called your name.

I saw something I’d never seen before, I wanted to share it with you so I called your name.

I was alone, the world got quiet, I whispered your name.

I was sad, my heart was hurting, I cried out your name.

A thousand times in a thousand ways I’ve called your name.

Every time God answered and replied ”I am Here”
