Thru The Eyes Of Love...

Robert Catron 1963 (Kansas)



I've heard people say real love is hard to find,
Some even try to say that love can even make you blind.
There are those who say they'll never love again,
For their hearts have hardened - their inner walls are closing in.
You have the people who can love only themselves,
Usually treating your feelings like a forgotten wat-not on a shelf.
You have the lonely who just need someone to be there,
They'll treasure you like gold for they honestly truly care.
You have the desperate who take anyone they can fine,
They're not worried about love - they just need piece of mind.
But don't get your hopes down and be all in despair,
For if you want to feel true love - just reach out - Jesus will be there.
