It’s nice to have time just to read and to think,
Praying, allowing my spirit to drink.
I cherish the moments of quiet and still,
A time of reflection and seeking God’s will.
I love to read words that are tested and true.
Handed down through the ages, each day they’re still new.
Reflections of glory from saints of the past,
Preserved and protected God’s Word will still last.
It’s always amazing to read words so old,
Words handed down that were once on a scroll.
Yet they’re still meaningful, touch me each day,
My heart’s always open to hear what they say.
I read about courage, the brave and the bold,
Their faith and integrity, hearts of pure gold.
Words cut through the darkness and help me to see,
Building the faith that’s residing in me.
