Love is Patient
by Kathleen HighamLove is patient, it is
You say love is kind
But Lord I am weary
No love can I find.
It seems never enough
No matter how much I give
I can't find the meaning
Of this life that I live.
Love is patient, it is
But Lord I am tired
Having emptied myself
Is that what You required?
Tears fall, pain comes
Then hope for tomorrow
Without love I am nothing
Still in me a heavy sorrow.
Love is patient, it is
With it a sweet release
Hold on- You say-Wait
Wait for Your peace.
Never enough? Too much?
My heart You always fill
Love pours out once again
As I wait for You, still.
Love is patient, it is
So until my life is through
I will give love my away
For I am nothing without You.
1st Corinthians 13:4
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
