Rescued

With the gentleness of a dove you made me what I would be. Softly, quietly you used love from my past to set me free. I did not know of your design. It was subtle, sweet, tender. But my soul it did surely find and all my faults surrender. A day came when I was new, I scarce could understand why. But now I know sweet, gentle you found me worthy of a try.
