"I ______ You!"

I love You more than any word on earth could convey;

There must be a word for love in Heaven that might be right to say.

It's more than "adore";

You know I love You to my core.

"A lot" sounds like nothing;

Especially because You control my heart's pumping.

"So much" isn't right either;

It sounds overly eager.

Your love is patient, calm, and gentle;

To say "I cherish You" sounds too sentimental.

Your love is forgiving, steady, and firmly rooted;

Loving You is effortless and unpolluted.

You are above, beside, below, and with me;

Your light above gives warmth and tranquility.

How is it there's not a word to describe the power of Your love?

It's wonderful and sent from Heaven above.

So I must ask You a favor;

I pray You fill in the blank with a word to truly savor.

"I love You" can't be right;

"Love" just doesn't reach the height.

My feelings for You come with the promise of eternity You see;

So please fill in the blank for me!

"I ______ You!"

AMEN
