My Heart's Storehouse

I thought of all the blessings
My Lord God did impart -
I tied them well with memory's thread
And tucked them in my heart.
When disappointment came to call
I had a goodly store
Of soothing thoughts to draw upon
While my heart was sore.
I've often found the trials that came
Knocking at my door
Were blessings in disguise -
Replenishing my store!
