For the Love of God

We feel God’s love
Each day and night
He holds us close 
Though out of sight

He gives us strength 
So we may cope
With life’s demands
And give us hope

Our faith in Him 
Is strong and pure
God’s in our hearts
Of that we’re sure

He helps us see
The light within
The hearts and minds
Of fellow men

We all embrace 
All God can give
With open arms
So we may live – with love
