To love, it be your command
Appointed by your good hand
Lord, come help, forgive, inspire
With your holy fire
Show us how to love, whole heart
Love to you in every part
Your love first to us you shared
By grace unimpaired
Where our love be partial, cold
Yet your love still does us hold
Gospel of your love be told
With your courage bold
And love for one another
Each sister and each brother
Strengthen us where faint we be
To love completely
Employing heart, mind, will, soul
Where distractions bring a lull
Help us return to first love
Spirit, holy dove
And our love expressively
In our praises tunefully
Pray, accept for your glory
We your creatures be
Gifts and graces we do know
Given to us here below
God in heaven, Spirit lives
In our hearts, life gives
