Love is Like a Breath of Heaven

Original issueThe Heartbeat of The Remnant · March/April 2011 · Volume 17 · Number 2

Love is like a breath of heaven. 'Tis from God above.
Blessed truths to us are given, when the Lord we love.

Love has power that's victorious, even gives its life.
Love can never be contentious; love despises strife.

Love bears all and love is pattient. Love will suffer through
Faithful in each situation; love holds all things true.

Love is never hard or bitter. Love forgets the past.
And instead it binds together, to the good holds fast.

Never rude is love's behaviour; ne'er its own would seek.
Others best is love's endeavor; love is kind and meek.

All that's earthly soon is passing; it will end for sure.
God-made love is everlasting; ever 'twill endure.

Love is to lay our own life down, as Christ did for you.

In this way the Lord first loved us, therefore we love, too.

Sheet music and lyrics for Love is Like a Breath of Heaven

This song has a simple melody, but one person described it as “the most scriptural song I ever heard.” It is a song worthy to add to your collection.

Since I only heard the melody and never had notes or harmony, this music may not match the “official” music, if there is any out there. If anyone knows who the author is, or if any music has been published with this song, please contact me. -Mike Atnip

Love Left Behind

The church at Ephesus had many good works, they had much knowledge, but they had left the first love. How do we leave our first love? It seems we too easily get the idea we’ve lost our first love and don’t know how to…
