Foolish Heart

Feeling a feeling

That leaves us reeling

Playing that game again

Knowing we won’t win

Wondering if love

Will come from heaven above

Longing to hold a hand

Right where we stand

Looking for something real

What only the heart can reveal

Knowing time will tell

What we know so well

Whispering a silent prayer

Knowing God is there

Until we start

With our foolish heart

Looking straight ahead

With a feeling of dread

Longing to fill the soul

With what will make it whole

Seeing that a tender touch

Means so much

Knowing we’ll reach our peak

When we hear God speak

Wanting some affection

As well as protection

Taking everything one moment at a time

While still in our prime

Being all alone

Until everything is set in stone

Looking for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Waiting on the plan

God will reveal when He can

Without hesitation

And much anticipation

Until we start

With our foolish heart
