Mark 12:28-34
Eternal One, thank you for your unending love
To follow You is to love others
To praise You is to serve others
To worship You is to forgive others
Mercy above sacrifice, grace above riches
Hope above fame, love above all else
Eternal One, thank you for your unending love
To follow You is to love others
To praise You is to serve others
To worship You is to forgive others
Mercy above sacrifice, grace above riches
Hope above fame, love above all else
Love connects us to You
Love connects us to others
Where we find love
We find the Spirit of the Lord
We find freedom
Love is a many-splendored thing
All we need is love
What heals our pain? Your love
What calms our fears? Your love
What nurtures our hope? Your love
What soothes our guilt? Your love
May the fruit of your Loving Spirit
Radiate through our entire beings
Let us be instruments of peace
Sowing redemptive grace
Let us strive to be a mirror image
Reflecting your love to those around us
Let us be less like a crashing cymbal
And more of an enduring melody.
