Notes About The Poem

There Is Love

There Is Love

Somewhere in this heart of mine
when push comes down to shove.
I'm finding that no matter what
it seems that there is love.

Peoples hearts are breaking
by one they've been betrayed.
But somewhere in their lifetime
there's someone that has stayed.

People asking everywhere
wondering what's the use.
Scars remain from someone else
they suffered such abuse.

Broken dreams or so it seems
sold out from inside.
They can't see like you and me
arms held open wide.

Hopes that some watched crumble
they suffered so much loss.
Not knowing everything they need
was nailed upon a cross.

For I have searched both high and low
below and up above
In looking to the savior
I found that there is love.
