The Way of Love

I lay it down

My life for you

For you are beautiful

Though storms may rage

And seasons change

In ways you don't control

My Lord has shown

The way of love

And that's the way I'll go

My life I do

Not hold on to

This world is not my home

I freely choose

What I will lose

So I am not alone

I give my life

For you, my bride

Are worth all that I own

For you, my love

I lay it down

In joy, not in defeat

I'll go the way

Of love for you

And never will retreat

I'll stay with you

Until the end

As long as I have breath

For joy, my love

To win your love

And be your closest friend

[Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ

also loved the church and gave Himself

for her. Ephesians 5:25]

Vic Lortz, 4/2006
