Is Love Stranger Than Fiction?
I don't believe in Cupid's arrows
Trusting in myths isn't too
smart
But I believe that someone special
Has gently but firmly
touched my heart.
I don't believe in love at first sight
I know true love takes
time
I do believe when God's timing is right
Two separate lives can
make one rhyme.
I don't believe that love is blind
It's only God's truth that makes
us see
With eyes wide open, we're bound to find
True love was made
for eternity.
I don't believe that loves comes easy
True love requires the
greatest sacrifice
But when God's Spirit sheds His love in our
hearts
Love is worth more than any price.
Set me as a seal on your heart
For love is stronger than the bonds
of death
Like a flaming fire, it sets two lives ablaze
True love can
give meaning to every breath.
Many waters cannot quench love
Even raging floods cannot drown it
away
For when our lives are transformed by God's touch
I know this
treasure is here to stay.

Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm:
for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave:
the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it:
if a man would give all the substance of his house for love,
it would utterly be contemned.
Song of Solomon 8:6-7
And hope maketh not ashamed;
because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts
by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
Romans 5:5
