Only God Could Love You Greater

Only God could have a stronger love 
than the love that I have for thee 
this is not lust nor a sinful love 
for God placed it inside of me. 
I know my heart better than anyone 
therefore, I know that this love is true 
God filled me with love that I needed to share 
then He taught me how to love you. 
First He taught me loneliness 
I had love, but nowhere for it to go 
then He taught me about falling in love too fast 
I had to take time and give love time to grow. 
He also taught me about misery 
I had to suffer, in order to learn from my mistakes 
He taught me the difference between real love and false 
by showing me those whose love was fake. 
I fell victim to false love a few times myself 
the pain lies with in my heart still 
now God is assured that I wont hurt someone else 
because I already know how it feels. 
God told me that once I found my true love 
I should be strong, yet gentle and sweet 
and that I should love her for the rest of her life 
from her head to the soles of her feet. 
So now I'm a man learned in love 
taught by God, our All Powerful Creator 
and I hope that you're prepared for a powerful love 
for only God could love you greater.
