When You Open Your Heart
When you open your heart you open a door
To a world that others easily ignore
Inviting in the way of the Cross
Purifying fire spiritual dross
Embracing those the church can't see
There is no vision when eyes are on thee
Hearing the cries feeling the pain
Loneliness shivers from the rain
Fog of indifference invisible flood
Perfection always avoids the mud
Love is sheltering one from the storm
Exposing yourself so another can warm
Love is a light that dwells within
Pure hearts see little ones not sin
Love is a heart that breaks again and again
Always hoping and believing not if but when
Love knows misunderstanding and rejection
Disappearing into the night of no reputation
When you open your heart you cannot ignore
A cry in the night and knock at the door
.....peace.....
