Heavenly Father, What about love? Dear God… what about love? Love is the reason I have always felt sure You’re in my heart – You’re there in my soul Love is the assurance that I can always know You’re still here with me, filling me, sealing me Assuring my thoughts and my hopes and my light Filling me with insight, inspiration and imagination Enlightening my dreams with faith that believes! What about love? Dear Lord… what about love? I question your light, your heart, your spirit Will you really love me, even when I’m timid Will you still love me, even when I can’t pray Will you still love me, even when I don’t wait For your spirit to reveal to me… the gentleness The feeling that You whisper through my soul Letting me know that I’ll always be yours! What about love, Heavenly Father, What about love? Then I remember that Your love is a given It never fades and it is never shadowed by A lack of faith or shallow grace – it always is The way, the truth, the life – it always waits On the heart and soul to pray and praise and stay Where they should stay – filled with this joy This faith, hope and love that is alive, a guide Toward forever and always, eternity with You The glue that holds my life together, makes me Feel the pleasure of knowing that your love Is always there, always prepared to fill me With a sense of purpose, a kindness, a worthiness Because the love that comes alive on your breath Is a love that gives my mind its ability to think My soul the power to feel hope that truly lives And my heart the capacity to give from the spirit Your love, my dear Father, is a love that is alive Always on fire, always fervent and warm, zealous Like the stars twinkling or the sun blinking above Love like this knows no bounds – it is wild and willing To bring joy to even the edges of Your forever! Love like this is a gift I’ll always treasure Thank You, Father – for love that lasts forever!
