Songblog: Love Never Fails (Brandon Heath cover)
"Love Never Fails" by Brandon Heath, 2009
This song, I think, echoes the message of the video I posted on Valentine's Day- love on a universal level. And I think that's important.
It describes everything that love is--including things we often forget. If love is a subject you've been struggling with lately, use this as a reminder of what love really means, and there there is always love, no matter what. We might not always see it, but it's there.
That's my dad, singing with me; or me singing with him. It's a song he chose for us to sing at my grandma's memorial service, because she was a very nurturing person, and the message of this song is something that would've meant a lot to her.
And hopefully, it means a lot to you. Sometimes we don't believe it when we hear the phrase "life is short." But it's true. Life's too short not to make the most of love and the people you love. Sadly, love is often forgotten, especially in anger or hate. So I hope this helps us all remember to respond always with love.
That's what matters.
Lyrics:
Love is not proud
Love does not boast
Love after all
Matters the most
Love does not run
Love does not hide
Love does not keep
Locked inside
Love is the river that flows through
Love never fails you
Love will sustain
Love will provide
Love will not cease
At the end of time
Love will protect
Love always hopes
Love still believes
When you don't
Love is the arms that are holding you
Love never fails you
When my heart won't make a sound
When I can't turn back around
When the sky is falling down
Nothing is greater than this
Greater than this
Love is right here
Love is alive
Love is the way
The truth the life
Love is the river than flows through
Love is the arms that are holding you
Love is the place you will fly to
Love never fails you
