Never Doubt I Love

Never Doubt I Love 

John McDermott

In an age of troubles 

In an age of uncertainty 

In an age of dwindling hope

You still have me

No matter where you are

No matter how far from home

No matter if you're lost

You still have me

Doubt that the stars are fire

Doubt that the earth doth move

Doubt truth to be a liar

But never doubt I love

Never doubt I love

You may lose things dear to you

You may feel naked and alone

You may think that you're losing your faith 

But you still have me

Remember when you're tired

Remember when you're defeated

They can take all your dreams

But you still have me

Doubt that the stars are fire

Doubt that the earth doth move

Doubt truth to be a liar

But never doubt I love

Never doubt I love

I feel like this song could go so many ways.... It could be a friend talking to another friend, it could be a parent talking to their child, or a child to a parent. It could be from one lover to another, it could be between husband and wife. Or, it could be a beautiful representation of God's unconditional love for us.

Part of the beauty of it, in fact, is that it doesn't delineate the relationship between the speaker and the one being spoken to. It just admonishes the person who is being spoken to to remember that no matter what comes, no matter how they feel, no matter if they lose everything, the speaker's love will never leave, never lessen, never ever ever disappear. 

And that's gorgeous.
