Love Needs No Words

Love has no need of words.
Love understands the thought unspoken
and the hope unvoiced.
My eager spirit reaches expectant hands
to claim its blessing,
and in faith rejoices to know
my hungry heart is understood.
And lo! as parents still an infant's cry,
so does God, rich in every good,
fill all my needs
from limitless supply.

adapted from Bonnie Day
in Best-Loved Unity Poems, 1946
