Where Is Your Faith

You put your heart on the line, you take the chance,
You do this over and over again,
You barely ever turn your back, which takes more faith to do,
There is so much love and hope in you,
You lean into my love and treat it as your own,
While others may say it doesn't belong to you, but you already know,
That every ounce you give is a picture of me,
Our bond of love is everlasting, even through failure you are set free,
I am always with you, I am in your soul,
You know I never let go, so you never let go,
I see your imperfections and still love you the same,
I see you do the same with others every day,
It is the harder path to take, it seems at times,
It tries continuously to strip the love from your eyes,
But understand this is part of the fight,
To steal and destroy the love in your life,
