My Love For You
by Jeremy Riddle

This is how I love You
I obey your commands
To love truth and love justice
And my fellow man

To steady the weak
And the hungry to feed
That Christ might be honored
And with me be pleased

For this is the love
The love You have shown
And to love I must echo
The love I have known
So I will be faithful
To love as required
A love shown by obedience
Lord I’ll be obedient

This is how I love You
Giving as I’ve received
The blessings You’ve lavished
To others in need

To care for the poor
To free the oppressed
To stand for the orphan
And the widow to bless

If I have not love
Then I truly have
Nothing at all

Here now is love
The love You have shown
And to love I must echo
The love I have known
So I will be faithful
To love as required
A love shown by obedience
Lord I’ll be obedient
