There’s love that is small and love that is sweet,
Like hugs from your grandma or cookies you eat.
There’s love that says hi and holds open the door,
That listens and helps and gives oh so much more.
But the greatest love, at the top of the chart
Is the kind coming straight from a selfless heart.
It’s not just in words, or in chocolate or song.
It shows up in actions—bold, faithful, and strong.
It’s the friend who will stay when you’re trembling in fear,
Who stands by your side and won’t disappear.
He will give up his comfort, his safety, his all—
To pick you back up when you stumble and fall.
Yes, the best kind of love, most true and most bright,
Is to give up your life for a friend in the fight.
And Jesus, you see, showed that love to the end.
He laid down his life for each one he calls friend.
