Puppy Love

What a wonder is sweet puppy love With us always in our deepest woe, Only loyal while we weep on Remaining ever close. Somehow understanding joy and sorrow Intrinsically as one, While we are busy trying to find release And let the pain be done. For, there's something very special About the bonding they will show in grief, Don't we wonder at their loving touch How together we can weep. As sorrows call forth a depth in relationship Never felt another way, And while we contemplate the ways of suffering For what comfort we will pray. And then how much more we appreciate Blessings that come our way If we like a puppy, feel another's pain Might we never more complain. They are grateful in innocent joy no matter what So at rest will they be How can we like them, accept things as they are In all the heartache that we see. Circumstances remain the same Yet their hearts are free, How will we find a joyous release like they Within the limitations that we feel. Can we too, trust a Master With such blind devotion of heart, Believing His abounding care Is in all He does impart. A puppy's tender eye of love Speaks so, of how fragile we also are, Ever subject to the big world's unknowns Who can safely keep our tender heart. Oh, Jesus is our trusted loving master For He broke the power of fear and death, We can be secure in Him, just like puppy love If in His love we rest.
