Hearing Hearts
 
Deep within the ears of our hearts
we hear your sharing voice.
Although you speak not a single word,
our hearts hear cries of joy.

In unselfish effort your fingers fly
over the lettered keys of grace.
What God has given us, through your hands,
is evident in your face.

The capturing of human words,
communication, is what we crave.
And through your unfailing fingertips
comes the wisdom that the speakers raise.

For all your faithful, dedicated work
we give you heart-felt thanks and honor;
but the greatest reward still waits for you
in the arms of our Heavenly Father.
