From the abundance of her heart,
Her mouth speaks.
If you listen carefully
You'll know she's not weak.
The lessons she learned
And the knowledge she earned
Didn't come cheap.
They cut her, and cut her deep
Her heart became the best candidate
To be God's perfect story host.
But there are some things she's
Not too proud to boast.
The very things she hid on the inside
Would have destroyed her even the more.
But because of the love of God,
Her heart He'd...

The Smile of God's Goodness I See
The smile of God's goodness I see,
In a blooming flower, in a budding tree,
In everything that's good and free,
The smile of God's goodness I see.
In the falling rain, in the bursting spring,
In children's sweet voices, in church as they sing,
