To the chosen lady,
Who is the one I love;
For she is not shady,
But is blest from above.
For the truth that we share,
But not the only one;
Knowing that God does care,
Since He did send His Son.
Everyone who knows,
The truth also loves you;
For we know how it flows,
More than we can construe.
Good will, mercy and peace,
Will always be within;
Through love that will not cease,
Blocks your leaning towards sin.
They come to us from God,
The Father and the Son;
Jesus Christ whom we laud,
His Spirit three in One.
Very happy was I,
You living in the truth;
Tears of joy that I cry,
That you are not uncouth.
So we love each other,
For love means that we live;
Like sister and brother,
Continue to forgive.
You have heard from the start,
God says to live in love;
Always keep in your heart,
Having thoughts from above.
Many people deceive,
For they have gone astray;
They refuse to believe,
Will not trust and obey.
They refuse to declare,
That Jesus is the Lord;
The Gospel that I share,
They merely have ignored.
I have a lot to write,
The Gospel to receive;
So you stay in the light,
Because you still believe.
