For Love

I tried to find on earth
if life on earth had meaning
saw the sorrow and the mirth
found little worth redeeming
but then I looked much higher
and saw the rhyme and reason
a sight to move and to inspire
a Word spoke in due season
The Word of heaven did come down
my own words were at a loss
wearing nought but  thorn-made crown
God’s Son hung on a cross
All things, All things were made by Him
and all things for Him made
He came to save the world from sin
sin’s debt with blood He paid
and all is His and He is All
on the cross makes all things clear
Grace for ears to hear His call
His Love shows why we’re here- id
