We have seen and testified, That the Father sent His Son; Also being crucified, For a victory be won. God lives in those who declare, Christ as Savior of the world; And we are able to share, The Good News that unfurled. Jesus is the Son of God, And you are living within Him; If you give Him honor and laud, He will give spiritual vim. We have known also believed, God loves us since He is love; Through salvation we received, From our Lord up above. For His love has reached its goal, So we look with confidence; His Spirit cleansed our soul, And has been the best defense. The Day of Judgment is near, In this place where we sojourn; Continuing to revere, The Father and His first Born. While we are in this place, We must be always like Him; Regarding to His embrace, To be bright rather than dim. No fear exists in His love, Perfect love gets rid of fear; He embraces from above, Knowing He is always near. For fear involves punishment, Since love demands discipline; It demands admonishment, While corrupted with sin. We love since God loves us first, Allowing rest from labor; Which satisfies our thirst, As we love our neighbor. Copyright © 2017 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
