My Storehouse

My memory is like a storehouse

Strong and wide and tall;

I store God's Word upon each shelf

That lines my storehouse wall.

My work and play are brighter far

With God's Word on each shelf

If I need joy or I need strength

I reach and help myself.

I memorize one verse each week

Though I am only four,

I say it morning, noon and night,

Yes, sometimes even more.

I could not understand God's Word

By my own self apart,

But Jesus died and rose again

And lives within my heart.
