Who?s Image
by Gertrude Jefferies

Can you hear my Father's voice
When I converse with you?
Do you see my Father's love?
in actions that I do?

Do I make you long to know,
the Lover of my soul?
Would you want to know him more
And let him take control?

When you're hurt does my heart break,
Do I cry with your pain?
Sharing with you God's great love
to make you whole again?

Oh Savior, may the answer be,
one that would please your heart.
And may I ever always seek
Your image to impart.
