John\'s Gospel Series (15)

 

A while before His departure

Jesus, He did assure

His disciples, His mission to

All His Father\'s will do

 

They could not with Him go just then

But remained among men

A time later they would Him see

Risen Lord He would be

 

A new commandment did He give

Showed them the way to live

\'Tis that we love one another

Whate\'er sister, brother

 

To love as Jesus has us loved

We among His beloved

So that we love each other here

As He has loved us dear

 

By this shall all people, they shall

Know, and proclaim and tell

That we are Jesus\' disciples

Love\'s hallmark each recalls

 

Thus people shall see believers

Givers and receivers

Speaking and living out Christ\'s love

Through His Spirit the dove
