There have been times
when my heart hasn't sang
though my vocal chords vibrate
and the sound of it rang
within the chapel, or church,
loud and clear;
though human ears heard it,
it wasn't sincere,
but a mere facsimile
of the true gift
that mortals like me
are permitted to lift
if the souls response
to God's goodness is real
it reveals itself
in what we feel -
so I hope that in worship
today when I sing,
my heart is included
in the offering.
