Showing Brotherly Love

Dedicated to Many Reasons for Compassion

Let us have love for each other,
Just as a sister and brother;
All because love is from the Lord,
And need to be of one accord.

Each one with love is a child,
To the Father meek and mild;
Along with the insight to know,
Exactly how the love will flow.

The love of God has been made clear,
Whoever cherishes Him dear;
When He had sent His only Son,
So in Him we could be made one.

Not that we had a love for God,
But sincerely honor and laud;
And show each other with the love,
That God showers from up above.

He sent His Son for our sin,
As a means to be cleansed within;
And that we might also have life,
Giving hope in the midst of strife.

We have the power in loving,
If we are truly believing;
And having the right behavior,
God sent His Son as a Savior.
