~ Love from Above ~
What is love?
This word we often hear?
Has its meaning been diluted,
Made cryptic and unclear?
Is it a feeling,
A warmth in the heart?
Is it a spark from which
A romance does start?
Or is love much more,
Does it transcend all these?
Is it sublime and sacred,
Bringing us to our knees?
Sublime, spiritual, sacred
Yes, love is all three
For God Himself is love
Love is the Trinity
Love is patient and kind
Selfless and humble too
Love pours of one’s self
And aligns with all True
Look at Christ closely
And know love complete
He accepted the Cross
Pierced hands and feet
Rejoice then, dear Christian
Praise your Father Above
Feelings are fleeting
But perfect and eternal is love
When all passes away
When this earth is no more
Faith, hope and love remain
And love the greatest to endure
Dear Father, fill our hearts
Make them with love overflow
Let us share this love with all
That You all may know
And love You more deeply
I will each passing day
To be more like Christ
This I earnestly pray.

For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
John 3:16 (KJV)
