Home of hearts
Esther David

Building a home of hearts, my love,
Is what we’ve got to do,
Making a peaceful haven
To shelter others, too.

Bearing each other’s burdens,
Sharing the heavy load,
Yoked to the Master’s service,
And walking a single road.

Giving your heart to another
Is making it a home,
Where the heart can rest in safety
With no more need to roam.

It’s making the best from nothing,
From two independent souls
Who yield to the Holy Spirit
And make a home of love.

Beholding heart to heart, my love,
Sharing secret dreams,
Loving the Lord in others,
This is what it means.

Laughing with one another
At the funniest things we do,
Learning to be a family,
Jesus, me and you.

It’s giving to one another
To make the weaker strong,
Stooping to help the other
No matter who’s right or wrong.

It’s learning the love of Jesus
That sees beyond the sin,
Loving the heart that loves Him,
Building peace within.
