Most humble of hearts, Remember – when we’re lost, Praying for a hope, a light, a beautiful That only comes to life inside, The heart who believes, the heart who agrees… Love is the answer. Love is the peace. Love is the reason – For every dream, each faith, All the moments – when we pray, For grace, His amazing grace! Most humble of hearts, Welcome the moments, the smiles, Revealing the peace inside, Those who believe in the silence, There are blessings for those who’re broken, Blessings for hearts who are lonely, Blessings for those who yearn to know Him, The One who saved the world – The One whose love is better than gold, More wonderful than anything on earth, More beautiful than the sun or the moon, More graceful than the harmony in a note, More gentle than the most humble tune. Most meek and kind, warming - not just the thoughts, But the souls of those who know… Despite the doubts, the dark, the dread There is love that kindles every fire, Love that relates the warmth in a smile, Love that reassures and reminds… Through love, there is more hope, More light, more grace – than anyone Can possibly know… Without His gift… His abiding peace, The wonder of the love that only He could give… There would be no promise of eternity, There would be no assurance burning inside me, There would be no moment – when His light would stream… Through my doubting, through my darkness, Through my dread… into the sure, silent promise, A promise of life forever in His presence, Forever in His company, always alive with Him, The One who lives inside, the One who is my guide, The One who will forever abide… Jesus, the Son of God – the reason that I know… Hope, peace and love, faith that reminds me why – He died and rose again, soothing away my fears, Silencing my tears and lifting my soul to new heights, Where He and I – we will forever survive all time, Survive the darkest doubt, because… through love, He found a way out of the shadows and into the light, Where love surrounds the soul with a promise of eternity, Eternity with love’s light pouring out its music, Raining down it’s glory – calming and reassuring, Through love, through light, through Jesus… There is the answer, everything we need to see… Love is the reason – during this season, we seek Him, Our Savior, our Maker, Love that is our greatest need!
