  15. Hi Clif,
    Thanks for stopping by this morning and listening to the song video I had posted. You had made a comment that it was a bit hard to understand the lyrics. Because they are so beautiful, I looked them up for you and thought I would share them. I hope you enjoy them!

    Listen To Our Hearts
    By Geoff Moore and The Distance
    How do you explain, how do you describe
    A love that goes from east to west
    And runs as deep as it is wide
    You know all our hopes, You know all our fears
    Words cannot express the love we feel
    But we long for you to hear

    Chorus
    So listen to our hearts, and hear our spirits sing
    A song of praise that flows
    From those you have redeemed
    We will use the words we know
    To tell you what an awesome God You are
    Words are not enough to tell You of our love
    So listen to our hearts

    If words could fall like rain
    From these lips of mine
    And if I had a thousand years
    I would still run out of time
    So if you listen to my heart
    Every beat would say
    Thank you for the life, thank you for the truth
    Thank you for the way
    Chorus
    So listen to our hearts, and hear our spirits sing
    A song of praise that flows
    From those you have redeemed
    We will use the words we know
    To tell you what an awesome God You are
    Words are not enough to tell You of our love
    So listen to our hearts

    Oh and by the way -I LOVE Emily Dickinson!! Thank you for sharing that beautiful poem today.

    Blessings to you,
    Kymber

  16. Hi Clif,
    One of my favorite poets...and to think she didn't want any of her poems published as she didn't think they were good enough! Thanks!
