Poetic Inspirations and Practical Applications for Blissful Living

True Love

True Love of the Lord

~*~

(Send as an Inspirational Christian Lighthouse e-card!)

True Love, flowing freely

Pouring to one and all

Such is the Love of the LORD

And to each heart He does call

 

Love, deep and infinite

Such is Love He does give

So in unspeakable joy and peace

His blood-bought children live

 

Love spanning the skies

Love reaching the depth of the sea

Love traversing mountains

Love embracing you and me

 

Our Lord loved each one

While sinners still were we

He died willingly for us

That born again we could be

 

Greater love has no man

Than to lay down his life for friends

The blameless Lamb did this for us

And His Love for us never ends

 

Yet do we embrace His Love?

His infinite graces do we receive?

Do we love our Lord in return?

In His Sacrifice do we believe?

 

May we never scorn His heart

May we never deny His Love

May we always embrace Jesus

The precious Gift sent from Above

 

And may we love Him ever more

May we love Him deeper each day

May we give all of ourselves to Him

For full love and surrender I pray

 

For to love the Lord deeply

Is to obey each of His commands

To love the Lord most truly

Is to surrender all into His Hands

 

So, brother and sister, let us love

Let our hearts love deep and wide

Let us give our hearts to Jesus

Walking always by our Savior’s side
