Divine Whisperer

DIVINE WHISPERER


It started with a whisper
When first You called my name;
The promise of, “I love you!
No matter what the pain!”

You whispered of Your Presence
In each and every day,
And I clung to You so tightly
When those words You came to say.

But life, it came and sought me,
And I turned from You to go
Never knowing that I left You
Or the pain it caused You so.

Through many lands I journeyed,
Your whisper always there.
But I was just too busy.
I simply didn’t care.

My days weren’t filled with laughter,
Much sorrow, I knew it, too.
Yet faithfully You whispered,
“Remember! I love you!”

We knew the pain together,
Though I didn’t understand
That You were always present,
So I didn’t take Your hand.

Your love it stood beside me
Each land I journeyed through
And every where that whisper
Kept wooing me back to You.

You whisper still, “I love you!
No matter what the pain!”
And so You came and sought me
And bought me back again.

The pain I know I caused You
As I wandered my own way
Would only bring me sorrow
If I didn’t hear say,

“Remember that I’ve loved you,
No matter what the pain.
And when you hear Me whisper,
Know I’ve given you My Name.”
