Love is patient,
Love is kind.
No sweet-talking boy
Will change my mind.
My morals are strong,
They aren't up for debating.
But I hear that true love
Is worth all the waiting.
I know you're out there somewhere
And someday I'll call you mine.
Whether it's years from now, or maybe days,
It's in God's perfect time.
So until then,
I will try to be
More like Jesus
And less like me.
I will focus on the one
Who loved me first.
The one who's always been there
At my best and worst
I'll prepare my heart,
The wellspring of my life.
And strive to become
A Godly future wife.
For what I want most
Will ultimately be;
A Christ-centered relationship
Between you and me.©
