Everyone Love Everyone

There is so much hatred here on earth For we don’t treat people for what theyre worth Our words have so much power We can tear people down or build them up like a tower We bring people down for our personal gain We think we win when we bring them shame Instead of shame, how bout we bring love Let’s show people a reflection of our Father above Let’s show that we’re different, we’re not the same For we’re not living for ourselves, but to bring glory to His name Because of this they may knock us down and spit in our face Instead of hating them back, let’s show them some grace We can think we deserve better, that life isn’t fair But if life was fair, we would all be in hell full of despair We think we don’t deserve all this pain But if we suffer here on earth, how much more in heaven we will gain! Even Jesus suffered in his human state So lets take his attitude, and after him lets imitate He didn’t hat back, for he knew that God is just He didn’t put things into his own hands, he gave God his trust Even though they hurled insults on Him He still came and died for all of their sin He gave us the perfect example of how to forgive So lets take it and apply it to how we live So no matter what people do to us We need to show them the love and grace of our savior Jesus When we hate back, what do we gain? All of what Jesus did will go in vain So lets follow him and all of his ways And bring glory to him the rest of our days And if we do this, we will discover That life is so much better when we all love one another
