I’ll Guard my Heart

 

Don’t play with me; I’m not a toy…

I’m a girl and you’re a boy.

 

I have a heart so tender and true,

And don’t want to hurt me or you.

 

I’ll be a friend, but that is all,

As my heart is big, it is not small.

 

One day I’ll meet God’s man for me,

And then I’ll give my heart liberally.

 

But as for now this heart is mine,

Until I know with God ‘tis fine.

 

Until He says, “Yes, this is he.”

I will guard my heart sacredly.
