His Love Never Fails


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This life is sweet, but transitory,
Future will soon be past,
And all we see will fade away.
Nothing we know will last.
 
Nothing, that is, except the love
That redeemed those once lost.
And paid for us what we could not,
The whole and perfect cost.
 
The mountains rise, until they fall
Then crumble into dust.
Even the wisdom man has learned
Proves derelict as rust.
 
The prophets fail, voices are stilled,
Only the husks remain
Of all the vast accomplishments
Mankind hoped to attain.
 
Yet even into the dark night,
Where strength proves all too frail,
The love that formed us, loves us still,
That love will never fail.
 
1 Corinthians 13: 8
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Love Stands Strong


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Love stands faithful within the storm,
Its roots run strong and deep.
However fierce the winds may blow,
Love will withstand their sweep.
 
Love is your shelter in the storm.
Though snows pile deep and high,
Love will be there to keep you warm
And hold you if you cry.
 
Love will not fail, it perseveres
Through all that this life brings.
Love is the hope that sees us through,
The song that our heart sings.
 
1 Corinthians 13: 7
Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres

Rejoice in Truth


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We have forgotten how to live
With those outside our squad.
It’s pointless that you think you’re right,
If you are wrong with God.
 
Hate has no roots within God’s love,
It withers in His grace,
And we should, likewise, offer it
No refuge and no space.
 
Let us, instead, rejoice in truth
That we’re all His children,
And let us offer love and peace
To all our fellow men.
 
1 Corinthians 13: 6
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
