Love, What It Is

Love, the most beautiful treasured gift.
It is more precious than gold,
It is immeasurable and strong.
Without love we would be nothing!
There would be no laughter,
No joy, no peace and no hope.
Without love there would be 
No beauty of the earth,
No God bless America,
There would be no you and I.
Without love where would we be?
Love, the most beautiful treasured gift.
It brings warmth and healing to the soul,
It brings rest to the weary,
And hope to the hopeless.
Love forgives everyone.
Love came down from above.
Love took our burdens away.
Love sacrificed for a chance at salvation.
Love paid the price that I may be free.
Love, the most beautiful treasured gift.
Father, let your love in me overflow in abundance
That the world may know of your love.
~AMEN~
