Love Connects

It's love connects the greatest to the small,
for only love can bridge a gap so far,
without God's love there'd be no bridge at all,
for what could fill the space from me to star?

Love makes God care for us and us for Him,
though we feel duty too and gratitude,
without His love, His care'd be but a whim,
with us bereft of Eucharistic food.

What is love that it fills a gap so wide?
How huge, how strong, how infinite must love be,
from God's love there is no place we can hide,
no light speed can match love's velocity.

O God, Your love's more than infinity,
I thank and love You for including me.
