Because You Love Me

Because you love me, I have found New joys that were not mine before;

New stars have lightened up my sky With glories growing more and more.

Because you love me I can rise To the height of fame and realms of power;

Because you love me I may learn The highest use of every hour.

Because you love me I can choose To look through your dear eyes

and see Beyond the beauty of the Now Far onward to Eternity.

Because you love me I can wait With perfect patience well possessed;

Because you love me all my life Is circled with unquestioned rest;

Yes, even Life and even Death Is all unquestioned and all blest.
