The Scent of Water
The hope of a plant is water
And the hope of the heart is love
A heart without love will falter
As will a tree if no rain falls from above
Perhaps lonely hearts can detect love's scent
As the tree detects the scent of water
Both these gifts are heaven sent
To be treasured now and ever after
By water we are baptized
As we become born again
Heaven's hope is the cherishes prize
Where love forever reigns
