"THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH"

Doris A. Lewis

Psalm 19:14

What do they say?
Have they been tested first within my heart
and fortified with love, when they depart
to meet some other heart weighed down with fear?
Do they go forth with joy to dry a tear
and find a way
to lift the grief and sadness that would bind
a lonely one? Let all my words be kind,
acceptable to God; spoken with care,
imparting all the good I long to share.

Doris A. Lewis
