Words and Music by Orin Johnson
\nbased on a prayer by St. Teresa of Avila<\/p>\n
To speak with you, to find my joy with you,
\nI do not need to raise my voice. \u00a0
\nThough I but whisper softly you hear me,
\nI carry you in my heart.<\/p>\n
To seek you, to fly to you,
\nI need no wings to lift my soul.
\nI need just stillness to look deep within myself,
\nI carry you in my heart.<\/p>\n
As with my brother, my sister, my best friend,
\nI may just be with you, just be with you,
\ntell you what troubles and ask you to help me;
\nI know, I know<\/p>\n
That you are my God and Father and unworthy as I am
\nI know that I am what I am, your child.
\nI carry this in my heart.<\/p>\n
I may just be with you, just be with you,<\/p>\n
I know, I know<\/p>\n
That you are my God and Father and unworthy as I am
\nI know that I am what I am, your child.
\nI carry this in my heart.
\nI carry you in my heart.<\/p>\n
