In the Lord’s Love

“Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.” (John 13:1b).

Through life’s unfolding years
Your love descends, a gift divine—
Each footstep on this path You tend,
A Shepherd’s care, so gentle, so refined.

Though trials may shadow every turn,
My joy remains unshaken, pure and bright.
Your love envelops me, eternal flame,
A constant presence in the darkest night.

My heart overflows with gratitude,
In faithful service, I bow my head.
Though time may shift like desert sands,
My spirit dances, by Your peace led.

Whatever tomorrow’s dawn may bring,
I lean on You, my strength, my guide.
May all I am belong to You—
In Your direction, let me abide.

Let Your abundant love pour down,
As my soul sings its joyous praise.
Your blessings wrap around me now,
A sacred shelter for all my days.

Your perfect love, through passing years,
Still shepherds every step I take.
Through valleys deep and mountains high,
My joy in You shall never break.

Your love surrounds me like a shield,
As faithful as the rising sun.
Though seasons change and years unfold,
In Your peace, Lord, my heart is one.
