Because .....

How marvellous it is to live
Because of love’s command
Because Christ died His grace to give
That I should live as planned

I live and love because of love
Because of love well spent
Because I’ve so much from above
I’ll never love repent

What Jesus did for such as me
For each for all mankind
Because He shares so liberally
Shows love is more than blind

It sees each need and slightest cause
Stretching its healing hand
Opening closing countless doors
In each and every land

Love’s free to give its free to keep
Though often seen as odd
But what runs shallow what runs deep
Is very nature’s God

Love’s Father Son and Holy Ghost
In Jesus’ serving throng
Always patient, offering most
Living to sing it’s song

It sings to me dances to you
Melodiously sweet
Its daily free its daily new
At Jesus’ loving feet

So here I stand here I live
In love wrapped up in grace
All I receive, loving I’ll give
Until I see God’s face.....
