Everlasting Love

During the 1987-88 college year 📚🕰️, after reading Psalm 46:1-2 (GNT) ✝️📖, I wrote a narrative poem with lyrical elements titled “Everlasting Love” 🕊️🎵.
It’s a creative, soulful gospel uplifting reflection 🤠🎶 on assumptions that each theory has to make and cannot prove and a little country flavor also the debate over Earth’s age matters—but humility, faith, and wonder matter more ✨❤️.
🗣️ Personal Note
I’m not a strong singer or composer 🎼😅, so in 2024 I turned to AI tools 🤖📱 to help bring this poem to life through music and vocals. After that, I also wrote a detailed biblical, scientific, and mathematical breakdown 📜🔬📖, which I’ve included below 💥📘.
Admittedly, my vocal skills may fall somewhere near Roseanne Barr’s infamous national anthem performance 🇺🇸😬—but my sincere hope is that the message, heart, and humor of the poem shine through ✨❤️🙏.
