From 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, 13: “Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.”

Struggling with life, feeling lost
Dark wilderness all around
Thirsting for someone to come
Waiting, hoping to be found
Love arrives from a white knight
Riding through the timberland
Accepting me as I am
Reaching out, touching my hand
Hearing my cries, God provides
This honorable knight stands
Sealing my heart with his love
Hour glass fills with precious sand
Life can feel like a desert
Leaving only loneliness
Faithful light comes to delight
Shining from God’s holiness
Two lives shall become just one
Uniting through a Holy Lord
Happiness now fills a home
Love singing a blissful chord
