John\'s Gospel Series (16)

 

Judas said, not Iscariot

Lord, how is this our lot

That you will to us disciples

Show yourself, [but] world not knows?

 

Jesus said, If any love me

He [or she] will keep my words, see

And my Father will love him too

Shall come to Him anew

 

The Father and the Son shall come

To him,and make their home

With him, for he that my words keep

Are those among my sheep

 

And they are not my words of me

But Father\'s words they be

And when Jesus departs, will send

The Spirit to them tend

 

Comforter, Holy Spirit

Shall He send, He shall knit

Their hearts as one, and He shall teach

Us all things, each one reach

 

And He shall too bring all the things

To us, His voice true rings

Bring all to our remembrance

Whate\'er Jesus said thence

 

Peace He leaves with us, eternal

Peace He gives us, free, full

Not as the world gives does he give

Hearts can untroubled live
