Written for and dedicated to my wonderful wife, Beth.
Lyrics
What is it, transcending time and space
Bringing joy and meaning asking only love's return?
It suffers with you even as it lifts you up.
Never placing fault or blame
Only promise to remain.
What is it, increasing as it's spent,
Who's sacrifice is pleasing?
And is source of all our hope
It knows no greater joy
Than watch you as you sleep.
Apart from you it only knows
Emptiness and longing deep.
What is it, revealing truth to me.
And is a reflection of God's perfect love for all?
It is my compass and the light by which I see,
The comforter which covers us.
And which lifts and counsels me.
It is Hope which remains forever true.
It's the purpose of my life.
It's my love for you.
