True Love - a wedding song



©Deborah Bolack 2002
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
True love makes a commitment to be there come what may.
True love survives through hardships; grows stronger every day.
True love is a decision to stick through thick or thin.
True love is kind and patient; forgives and gives again.
~
True love bears all things, believes and hopes all things.

True love will never fail, for true love endures all things.
~

True love is not diminished as years go passing by.
True love comes from our Father, to share the vast supply.
True love has no conditions; it doesn’t keep a score.
True love just keeps on loving, and loving more and more.
~
True love bears all things, believes and hopes all things.
True love will never fail, for true love endures all things.
~
True love came down from heaven; gave all that he could give.
True love will guide your future, as your new lives begin.
~
True love bears all things; believes and hopes all things.
True love will never fail when your lives are one in Him.

I originally wrote this song for Brian and gave it to him on our 22nd anniversary. Our Pastor had begun teaching a series on marriage and the family, and if I recall correctly, he had given some homework. I don't remember the details, but this song was the result!
Later I made a few changes and added some lyrics. I sang it at a wedding shower for a friend.


1 Corinthians 13:4-8a Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth;



1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a note. My hope is that my songs will bring glory to my Lord and Saviour, and be a blessing and an encouragement to all who stop by.
