The power of love

Took my pen, wondering what to write
Thought of love, words flood my mind
Love is the pinnacle of power

It has the power to forgive
                rather to take revenge
It has the power to repent
                rather to rebel
It has the power to give
                rather to receive
It has the power to be patient
                rather to be fed-up
It has the power to be kind
                rather to be rude
It has the power to suffer
                rather to be in comfort
It has the power to stay humble
                rather to be proud

Such a love is personified only in Christ,
                who left everything, came searching for us
                               and embraced us on the cross of Calvary
