Expresses God to be our kingdom prize.

Godliness thrives in a garden of God’s love

Love so delightful

strong and pure.

A blooming love

a love that will endure.

Ultimate love is the sweet

eternal fruit

God

through the branch

the trunk

and root;

Nobler and higher

such love we now shall be

Love growing
