Love

Let love be my reason for everything
As love was the reason for His blood-stained offering
Such love engraves itself upon my heart and soul
Such love commands my life and my path foretold
Yet still in the arms of such love I am forever held

Hope

Hope, help me see beyond myself, my pain and sorrow
And envision the cross in which I follow
Against all hope I will, in hope believe
For He is my reason and hope, His strength in me
So I will hope for such hope has the power to set me free

Faith

In Christ, let my faith find meaning
Let faith be the substance of my very being
To believe and trust in the One I love
Be in comfort or be in suffering, let it be
For I believe and trust in His love for me
