Of These Three

Of these three: faith, hope and love- let love reign.	 
And faith, as essential as one's breathing;		 
Hope must be second, for a higher plane.		 

When suffering and heartache stir the pain		 
And disappointments pierce us like teething;	 
Of these three: faith, hope and love- let love reign.	 

The wiser soul despises old refrains,			 
Focused only on heaven’s high wreathing		 
Hope must be second, for a higher plane.		 

The devil spins his lies for sordid gains			 
God gives His children a three-fold sheathing.		 
Of these three: faith, hope and love- let love reign.	 

Abide in heaven’s mercies and His Name 		 
And discover grace and trials easing.			 
Hope must be second, for a higher plane.		 

Great aspirations flow through seeker’s veins,
Unimagined heights and glory seizing-
Of these three: faith, hope and love- let love reign.
Hope must be second, for a higher plane.
