No Score-keeping In Love (because love is not a sport)

 Love...never fails.

1 Cor.13.8




When we keep score, nobody wins 
The more we measure that for this 
The more we miss of hug and kiss 
And the sweet bliss of ‘love-you’ grins 

When we keep score, we leave behind 
Words like goodness, mercy and love 
Better to count more than enough 
Reasons to be thankfully kind 

When we keep score, how we lose out 
On wondrous would-be happiness 
And life’s most valuable success 
Of what true love is all about
