What is love?
by Maria P Urso, December 2001
Love is the light
From above shining down
Given to us
And spread the world round.
Love is the essence
Found deep within
Surpassing all knowledge
With truth it begins.
Love is the bond
Between woman and man
Serving each other
When no one else can.
Love is the gift
Raging wild and free
From the depths of the ocean
To land and to sea.
Love is the stronghold
When all else fails
It steadies the ship
Til it reaches dry land.
Love is the anchor
When waters are troubled
The more love that's given
The anchor is doubled.
Love is the comfort
Of knowing within
Forgiveness is waiting
And peace follows in.
Love is not words
Spoken in vain
Love brings no harm
Love brings no shame.
Love is the light
Like a sunrise at dawn
Spreading its rays
Like the wings of a dove.
Love is..........................

Cry Not My Child
by Maria P Urso, Copyright 2001
Every time you shed a tear
I catch it when it falls.
For I am standing near you
When it's your name Jesus calls.
He longs for you to realize
Heaven's oh so near.
The angels stand protecting you
When your heart if filled with fear.
It is then I wanted to hold you
And tell you I am fine.
For where I walk, the streets are gold
Glistening as they shine.
The room that Jesus gave me
In His mansion is so grand.
And when I want to take a walk,
Jesus holds my hand.
So when you feel the gentle wind
Touch your tear-stained face
It's me and Jesus walking by
In His Amazing Grace.
O Child of Mine, cry no more,
Your love shines through to me.
And I love you as Jesus does
Always and eternally!
