God’s Love is like no other love,
Not of this Earth, it comes from above.
It suffers long, it is always kind,
Unlike people, to our faults it’s blind.
It is never boastful, it’s never proud,
It’s always so gentle, it’s never loud.
It isn’t selfish, and seeks not its own,
It never envies, or has a harsh tone.
It bears all things, it gives us hope,
It smooths out problems, so we can cope.
It never fails, of this you can be sure,
God’s great Love, will always endure.
