~ THE TERRITORY OF MY HEART ~

If my heart were an acre of land

What would I build, what would I plant?

Perhaps a palace of finest stones

And trimmings with silver and gold.

I would have windows that reflect the sun

And knickknacks that please and that I want.

Perhaps a garden with a pleasant view

Trees, shrubs and lovely flowers too.

I am writing about my heart

And who lives in that place so far?

My husband, my children, and other friends too

The question, “Would Jesus enjoy the view?”

Dear Lord take possession of every part

And be the Landlord of my heart.
