Valentine

“God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.” 1 John 4:16b

 

Bursting in my heart

Is love sweet, love true,

Beating in my heart

Is a song for You.

 

Burning with fire,

My heart is now a flame,

With You, my Lord Jesus,

Nothing is the same.

 

My soul You renew,

My mind You transform,

My once shivering heart

You make clean and warm.

 

So accept my love for You,

You are my Valentine,

You lavish me with love

Precious and divine.

 

It flows to me freely

From Your heavenly throne;

You are all things to me,

My very life You own.

 

Sweet Valentine,

One Whom I forever love,

My eyes are fixed on You,

My Treasure is above.

 

Little can I offer

To You, Almighty King,

Yet allow me this song

To before You now sing.

 

You are my Love,

My life to You I give,

No sweeter joy do I know

Than for You to live.

 

Forever I shall praise

Your precious Name,

Your Spirit burns within me

An eternal flame.

 

Yes, bursting in my heart

Is love sweet and true,

Beating in my heart, Valentine,

Is this song for You.

    I started a poem to
    pen back, how warm,
    His Spirit within
    you, imputes His Form.
    today.

    Sorry to say, again,
    my dismay,
    bad typing didst
    send, said Sonnet, my friend,
    Far,far, and accidentally, away.

    To the place by the Sun
    where lost socks oft do run,
    skipping from the wash to His providence
    to play.

    All of this decorum,
    belongs on the floor, ..Um
    But I could not , not wish you,
    On Valentine’s Day, too.
    Blessed Wishes and Son’s Love.
    Adieu.

      Humbled I am that you wrote a poem for me!
      I am grateful to you, dear David, for all eternity.

      May you continue to shine with the Lord’s love;
      May you keep your eyes fixed on treasures above.

      Happiest Valentine’s blessings I extend to you,
      And may God bless you richly in all you do!

      Joyfully in Jesus’ Son~shine,
      Caroline :)
