Precious You are my Lord

My precious Lord.
My heart whispered and I heard that you are indeed precious.
I went in search for You.
I searched you in diamonds, gold, silver and precious stones.
All I saw was the beauty that you instilled in them, but not You.
I searched you in beautiful places and beautiful things.
I saw wonder and excitement but not You, my precious Lord.
Then in my heart, when I loved I felt Your presence.
In my heart when I was merciful, I felt Your presence.
Oh, precious Lord, my Creator Blessed it is You.
Oh, my heart is overjoyed to find You.
I found You in love and mercy, my Creator Blessed.
Teach me how to love.
Teach me how to be merciful.
So that I am more like You every day.
