I Shall A Gentle Heart Be

TiffanyR

I Shall A Gentle Heart Be

 

If I can dry one tear

from thy cheek,

I shall a gentle heart be;

 

If I can hear your prayer and plea,

or calm a fearful sigh,

 

Or right one wrong,

and light your painful cry,

 

I shall a gentle heart be.

 

 

(An adaptation of an Emily Dickinson poem, I Shall Not Live in Vain)
