A Love that Is Willing to Lose

What's behind that twinkle in his eye?
Is there truth,Or a lie?
Are you really my friend?
Will you be there in the end?

Love isn't based on what you can do for me.
No, it shouldn't be.
Love says, "I'll lay down my life."
"I'll say what's true even if it cuts like a knife."

It is not hearts and rainbows
It is steadfast in the highs and lows.
So before you give your heart away
Remember what I say.

Be careful what road you choose.
Sometimes in order to find true love
You must be willing to lose
Your way, your control, your pride.
You must not hide.

Let go of all your know
And you will grow.
Choose a different way
and Christ, who is your life,
Will tell you what to say.
