Teach Me How To Love
I asked God to teach me how to love his people
To rejoice with Truth and never delight in evil
To always trust, to hope,
knowing that He will always protect me
With his unconditional love...unlike others
He would NEVER neglect me.
To be patient...kind..and to help me persevere
To be the last to speak and the first to hear
To be content with what I have
but never boast
because if it wasnt for Him....
all my blessings would be toast
To keep no records of wrong
when thats how they do me.
To not be easily angered by strangers
or to behave rudely
To never envy
when someone has what I'm desiring
To never seek self
and if i do...retire me
LOVE never fails
with everything I stated above...
but I also gain nothing
if I have not LOVE
