Let Love Find You

 

Searching for love?

You won’t find it that way

You’ll just fail in your search

Each and every day

Trying to buy love?

That is even worse

If money could buy it

Many would be cursed

Some can bargain well

And their talk is smooth

But still can’t find love

Be it a prude or dude

Some are captured

By a pretty face

But as the novelty wears off

There is just distaste

Some search in a place

Or an inanimate thing

But the love you need

None of these can bring

The love you need

You’ll find it not

This love must find you

It’s who rather than what

We don’t find love

Love finds us

The love I mean is

The one called Jesus

They tell me

Confession is good for the soul

One must stop pretending

If one wants to be whole

Like your situation

Similar was mine

Until Love found me

At just the right time

  

So my entreaty to you is

Let Love find you

Wherever you are

He has you in his view

Your search will take you

In a different direction

So just stop where you are

He knows your location

As he comes to you

Don’t run away

Let his love find you

No longer delay

Accept his love

Let it warm your heart

For once his love finds you

It will never depart
