It Shows in Your Face

 

Paul Joseph, D.D.S., 94

You don't have to tell how you live

each day;

You don't have to say if you work

or you play;

A tried, true barometer serves in the place----

However you live, it will show in 

your face.

The false, the deceit that you bear 

in your heart,

Will not stay inside where it first

got a start;

For sinew and blood are a thin veil

of lace--

What you wear in your heart, you

wear in your face.

If your life is selfless, if for others

you live,

For not what you get, but how

much you can give;

If you live close to God in his

infinite grace--

You don't have to tell, it shows in

your face.

(Dr. Paul Joseph shared 4/8/22)
