Faith

By Kim Howey

My eyes can see the stars

When the sky is dark and clear.

My ears can hear my cat

As she purrs beneath my ear.

My hands can touch a book,

Each page a dream, a wish.

My mouth can taste a pepper

That spices up my dish.

My nose can smell a lilac,

Its subtle scent so sweet.

My heart can know the Savior,

That one day we will meet.
