Eternal Love

There is a love that passes by
  and lightly touches all -
But the love soul mates share
  does not so freely fall.

God blesses them with more
  than just a passing sigh -
He reaches down to bestow them
  love eternal from the sky.

It will come to them, not faultless,
  but when their love is tested -
Oh what precious joy it will bring
  when it truly is perfected!

Love’s journey will never be easy,
  as it longs to always be true,
It will remain in your heart forever -
  if you’re among the chosen few!

So cherish it with all your might,
  and never, ever allow it leave -
For if you ever take it for granted,
  its’ loss you will surely bereave.

So, if you have been so touched
  by your Father up above -
Continually praise and thank Him,
  for the gift of – Eternal Love!
