Love’s Sweet Refrain

Love is a mystery,

Because to give is to gain,

Love is a mystery,

No joy without pain,

There is nothing more real,

Nothing better to feel,

And the truth to life,

Is you must hurt to heal.

The only road from darkness,

Leading to light,

Love is the way,

To make everything right.

The years do pass,

Taking their toll,

But a youthful smile,

Restores the soul.

Love’s sweet refrain,

Can heal any pain,

And with just a smile,

We are young again.

The only road from darkness,

Leading to light,

Love is the way,

To make everything right.

Our souls at times feel,

Without a hope,

Wondering where to turn,

And how to cope.

Dispelling any fear,

One may hold near,

Exchanging lies for truth,

Holding life sincere.

The only road from darkness,

Leading to light,

Love is the way,

To make everything right.

Pain leads to anger,

And anger to loss,

Which makes the heart empty,

Too high of a cost.

Our cups will always be filled,

Our hearts always thrilled,

For when others come first,

God’s love is fulfilled.

The only road from darkness,

Leading to light,

Love is the way,

To make everything right.
