The Search for Love


Oh why does the heart still fall in love

When only pain it does beget

What drives the resounding beats

That surely will fall flat

No desire so sickeningly sweet

Nor hope so despairing

Yet if love was a sword

We would fall on it gladly

To death we would search

For “till death do us part”

Because life begins apart

Without intimacy of heart

But only separation

Seems the natural state

So why the intuition

The instinctive longing

The ever seeking wander

That surely is for naught

Or we feel it so

Yet search we must

For love we were made

And not love a concept

But rather Love

A Person

A God

He instilled that intuition

To know loneliness

As unnatural

And He died

To bridge that separation

And He went to it gladly

That we might know Love

Jesus

Intimately  

We are made for Love

Crafted for Love

By Love

Crafted by Love

God drives these resounding beats

And they will not fall flat in His hands

But when they stop

Death does not part

And pain we will forget

As we meet

And rest

At our Saviour's feet
