Love that stands the test of time,
Endures the greatest pain;

Standing firm against the storm,
And yet, still love remains.


A calm among the storm tossed winds,
A peace down deep inside;

Will keep that faith alive and strong,
As long as love abides.


Love that conquers anything,
Knows only how to give;

Asking nothing in return,
A love that will forgive.


It looks past any sorrow,
Much stronger than the wind;

The faith that stands the storms of life,
Will be there in the end.


Faith that's given everything,
With nothing left to gain;

Will find the strength to give yet more,
When only love remains. :-)

I see you in the morning,
When the sun glows through the haze

As the beauty of a thousand lights,
Bring forth a newborn day.

In the fragrance of a tender flower,
Touched and kissed by morning dew;

When its petals spread to seek the sun,
It is there that I see you.


As I look on the horizon,
See an eagle take to flight;

In all its strength and beauty,
I see you in the sky.

I can hear you in the silence,
Of a summer's afternoon;

As soft warm breeze sweeps over me,
Your quietness fills my room.


I can smell you in the distant rain,
As it falls to kiss the ground;

The clean and earthy smell of you,
Its fragrance does surround.

Then as the sun falls softly,
And night breeze fills the air;

As stars come twinkling from the sky,
I see your beauty there.


Though splendor does surround me,
It never will replace;

The beauty that my heart does see,
When I behold your face. :-)

When you are in love, it means that the person you love is of great personal, selfish importance to you and to your life. If you were selfless, it would have to mean that you derive no personal pleasure or happiness from the company and the existence of the person you love, and that you are motivated only by self-sacrificial pity for that person's need of you. I don't have to point out to you that no one would be flattered by, nor would accept, a concept of that kind. Love is not self-sacrifice, but the most profound assertion of your own needs and values. It is for your own happiness that you need the person you love, and that is the greatest compliment, the greatest tribute you can pay to that person. :-)

Lord, give to me the courage,
To face each passing day;

Shine Your light upon my path,
To help me see my way.


Pour in me Your wisdom,
And grace so I may stand;

Then let Your strength become my own,
As I hold on to Your hand.


Shine in me Your beauty,
A light for all to see;

Where there is hope, where there is joy,
Is where the Father lives in me. :-)
