Lord Help Me To Love You

Lord Help Me To Love You

Lord help me to love you each and every day, so I can grow in your love as you guide me on my way, help me to reach out to those hurting like me, so I can lead them to your throne where you can set them free.

I'll go to the highways and cities and compel them to come in, to your house of glory to be filled with love again, I'll reach out to the poor ones, crippled, blind and deaf, to those that are lost and no one cares, and bring them home again.

There's people on the streets and in our prisons too, that had their friends and family say, we don't care about you, but Jesus died for all mankind, the good and bad alike, and those that call on His name were made clean in His sight. 

Jesus said if you love me and you want to feed my sheep, then help the poor strangers living on the streets, go to my lost lambs and bring my children home, and reach out to the prisoners so they are not alone.
