No Lovelier Love

No Lovelier Love

There is no lovelier way to love than Yours,
of all the ways we choose to love down here;
You, God, are love, and all Your love endures,
so it's Your love that I shall volunteer.
If I must love, let it be like Yours, Lord,
and I must love if I'm to really live,
with love like Yours, I never will get bored,
for Your exciting love I'll love to give.
I choose to love, yet love at Your command,
for what is truly love but to obey?
You planned my love, yet too I love unplanned,
for love obeyed is unplanned ricochet.
O Lord, I live to love just like You do,
for I shall love no lovelier love than You.
