c2.  One small gift

My love cannot be measured
By just one small gift
And within my heart
The thought is treasured
That ever grows narrower
This earthen rift.

Even though our time apart
Seems to span an eternity
And space constantly
Lengthens our journey;
From now 'till then,
It is hard to say when,
Jusy know that someday
We will be together again.

Since we are immortal souls
In the Lord.
I know that our love
Will withstand.
Since I adore you this way
My love for you will never end.

No boundary ever mortally drawn,
Nor any such line
Could ever sever my soul from yours.
I am blessed that you are mine.
