IF YOU LOVE

IF YOU LOVE

 

One new commandment

That’s all Jesus gave

To love each other

That’s how to behave

 

They claim to be Christian

But only loved their own

For the rest of God’s children

No love they’ve shown

 

They’ll say may God bless you

When there’s such a need

But to lend a helping hand

They won’t intercede

 

For it was Jesus they refused

To lend Him a hand

God’s love was not there

As they ignored His command

 

³⁴ A new commandment I give to you, that you

love one another; as I have loved you,

that you also love one another.

JOHN 13:34

 

¹⁷ But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees

his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him,

how does the love of God abide in him?

1 JOHN 3:17

 

⁴⁵ Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly,

I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one

of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’

MATTHEW 25:45
