From Where Love

Where comes this love that's planted in our heart,
so beautiful, so precious, so benign,
this love that bonds us closer with such art,
that wraps itself around us like a vine?
No one who's loved a mother need be told,
how strong, how deep, how innocent is love,
how love unites foe-friend, rich-poor, young-old,
how love fits all together hand in glove.
What joins us all with love is God alone,
there is no evolution for love's song,
God gives us love, for love is all God's own,
if we love true, to God we do belong.
Since God is love, that makes true love divine,
when I love true, I taste and make God mine.
