Love

Out of everything we’d want or need

Love will not forsake us

Everyone is loved; God loves us



Love flows

Like a river love flows

Ongoing, never stopping

Like a river love flows



Water

Love is like the water

Going down a river, a long, long river, is water

Never stopping, ‘till cold, ‘till frozen



Water moves

Swishing, splashing, vile eroding

Carrying that evil thing until it hits the sea

And we don’t know how far away that is going to be



Water falls

Filling every river, rain falls from the sky

If the rain stops the river runs dry

And not a thirsty sole can drink



But somewhere out there, there is water

And there is love

In which that thirsty sole will find, intake, and cherish

And every thirsty sole can drink



For there is always water, and there is always love

Though you might think it’s there

Love is plentiful, love is good

And God is good and God is love, and God loves us
