Love Never Fails

Love. Love. Love.

I love love.

I love everything about love. But don't get me wrong, love is not always easy. In fact, it's often times the hardest thing we will ever do, to truly love. But in the end, if we give and receive love, the kind of love that was given to us by God, then we will truly have life.

This song by Brandon Heath is my current fave. It takes a verse known by many and transforms it into one of the most beautiful songs I've heard.

Love Never Fails by Brandon Heath, Chad Cates

"'Love Never Fails' is all about 1 Corinthians 13. I know that audiences have heard this verse many, many times. But the truth is, "love never fails" is probably the most powerful line in the Bible. That's what we are supposed to do as far as following Jesus and loving the Lord with all of our heart, mind and strength, but also loving our neighbor. We have to know that real love won't fail us. If anything, 1 Corinthians 13 tells us how to love well." - Brandon Heath

Love is not proud
Love does not boast
Love after all
Matters the most

Love does not run
Love does not hide
Love does not keep
Locked inside

Love is the river that flows through
Love never fails you

Love will sustain
Love will provide
Love will not cease
At the end of time

Love will protect
Love always hopes
Love still believes
When you don't

Love is the arms that are holding you
Love never fails you

When my heart won't make a sound
When I can't turn back around
When the sky is falling down
Nothing is greater than this
Greater than this

Love is right here
Love is alive
Love is the way
The truth the life

Love is the river than flows through
Love is the arms that are holding you
Love is the place you will fly to
Love never fails you
