**Lord You Love Me**

 

Lord you love me, let me never your decisions doubt

 The less worldly treasure one has, the less to worry about

Where there is no fear of all the worldly riches one can lose

Always sharing all of our gifts, the needy never to refuse

 

Lord you have given my heart blessings that internally inspires

 Pure spiritual love for you, not physically self gratifying desires

Being one with Christ, knowing in my heart you will always stay

Supplanting all wicked thoughts and human prestige of the day

 

Lord you have granted me faith when everything seems to fail

Fighting back Satan, snatching me from the savagery of Hell

When my mind is tormented with evil, your all sufficient love

Destroys it with peace, generously sent from Heaven above

 

Lord you are hope as I grow weary and death looks me in the face

Holding me in the straight and narrow to finish my great race

When I tire and prostrate fall, your grace will my goal define

For your gentle arms will carry me across life’s great finish line

 

Lord you will bring me to Heaven for your blood insures my fate

Leading me down the golden road, opening that great pearly gate

There in peace and beauty undefiled a mansion you did prepare

Making me part of Paradise, always to live in your tender care

 

Lord some we love are left behind as this world we depart

Please keep your saving love alive deep within their heart

 Give them peace below while above we patiently abide

Till all are united in Heaven to live forever by your side
