I emptied my pockets
of all that I had
but I couldn't empty my heart
of all that I am

what I carried in my pockets
was not always silver and gold
what I carry in my heart
are heartfelt stories told as they unfold

sometimes who we are
is whom we share
sometimes what I hold in my heart
is worth more than words

sometimes my words
are all I can share

I placed another call to God
because the last time he called me
I was feeling so low
yet I forgot he is awesome to know

I think about him every day
and I want him in my life in every way
my passion for his love
is so hard to describe

for the way he has touched my life...
perhaps I should just give up all I have
because
with his everlasting love
he makes my heart fully satisfied
