Lord, I Live For Your Glory

Lord, I live for Your glory; such is my commitment;

Obeying Your commands props my service-assignment

Reaching Your standards sets my heavenly attainment

Delighting in Your love* settles my faith-fulfillment!

*Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Romans 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
