Knowing, Obeying, Loving

Tune: Binchester

('Happy are they, they that love God')

1 John 2 v.1-6

***********

If any one sin, we have an

Advocate, any can

Have with the Father, He Jesus

The righteous one for us

 

He is the propitiation

Atones for each nation

Making forgiveness possible

For us, and unto all

 

And hereby we do know that we

Know Him, this is how, see

if we keep His commands, obey

Follow Him, He the Way

 

They that say, I know Him, but do

Not keep His commands, true

It be that they lie, the truth is

Not in them, sure is this

 

But whoso keeps His word, obeys

They stay with Him, no strays

In them the love of God truly

Is perfected, so be

 

This is how we know Him, and they

Who say that in each day

They abide in Him, such should walk* (*live)

As Jesus lived, did, talked
