To put in words, I know not how.
Your love is beyond what I can speak, or even pen.
I cannot know the vastness that is your heart,
yet I seek you so.
To know you fully is my desire;
but can my heart contain it?
Can my mind comprehend your infinite greatness?
You see beyond my blemishes.
You forgive my every transgression.
When comfort I cannot find,
your warmth embraces me.
Peace you freely give.
This love is beyond measure.
Who am I
that I may receive a love such as this?
I have seen death and been spared,
my loved ones given back to me.
To this great love, none compare.
Treasures have you given me:
one, two, and three.
And, without a doubt, I know
your promise will I see.
Oh that I may return
a morsel of what you’ve given me.
