Analysis of LovingAction
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
We know that we are of the truth,
Reassure your heart before God;
As we were taught in our youth,
That we must show honor and laud.
Whenever your heart does condemn,
God is greater than our heart;
For He is knowing your mayhem,
Long before your actions would start.
If our heart does not condemn,
Before God, we have confidence;
He awards us a diadem,
As His child for acceptance.
Whatever we ask we receive,
Because we keep His commandments;
For with our faith, we believe,
Pleased with our accomplishments.
His commandment that we believe,
In the name of Jesus His Son;
To love each other to receive,
What commanded of faith has won.
Keep His commandments to abide,
Through His Spirit He has given;
The Holy Spirit as your guide,
To be able to reach Heaven.
