You’re Holding the Best Part of Me

 

It’s a bit tattered

It’s a bit worn

There are some places

Where the pages are torn

Dog eared and marked up

Not much to see

But when you hold it

You’re holding the best part of me

 

I was so mixed up

I’d lost my way

I had forgotten

The feeling of grace

At first confusing

Challenged all I believe

Now when you hold it

You’re holding the best part of me

 

It made me wonder

Time and again

Its page speak to me

Like the voice of a friend

Like Linus’ blanket

It’s been my security

So I sent it to you

You’re holding the best part of me
