I Would Never Promise You

I Would Never Promise You with just my strength alone,
  But all my life I'd care for you and Love you as my own.
I've never seen the future. I only see today.
  Words that last a lifetime would be more than I could say.
This Love inside my heart today is more than mine alone.
  It Never changes. Never fails. And Never seeks its own.
And by the GOD who gives it and who lives it in me and you this very day.
  I swear these words I speak today are the words I'm gonna do.
So I stand before you now for all to hear and see.
  And Promise you in JESUS' name a Love he's given me.
Through the years on earth and as eternity goes by,
  The life and Love he's given us are NEVER going to die.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "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." Be blessed.
