You Have A Way With Words

You Have A Way With Words

It rested on my table
The cover caught my eye
As if to call my name as I passed by.
I opened up this treasure
To find the words, so old so new
In letters of sweet love to me from You.
As I savored every phrase
Your scarlet thread through every page
My heartache and my sorrow melted away.

You have a way with words.
Your tender voice revealing
The words of hope and healing
In my moments of despair
No other love consumes my soul.
Its the sweetest sound my heart
has ever heard.
You have a way with words.

Youve wrapped yourself around me
Refusing to let go.
Each word so fitly spoken
Wooing my soul.
You sealed it with a promise
Never to leave nor to forsake.
But Youre always there to guide me
Throughout the age.
So I find strength for every season
And the faith beyond my reason
It is my hope for every day
And it will never, never pass away.

(repeat chorus twice)
