O God, how do I know if I love You?
I know I love You, Lord, because I pray.
I also know because of what I do,
because I follow You and I obey.
How do I show obedience and prayer?
The Thou Shalt Nots, the Seven Deadly Sins;
if I have faith and hope, never despair,
and when in doubt, I know love always wins.
I choose God and recall God is a choice,
in everyone I meet, behold, His face,
I give that audience of One great voice,
breathe in, then share, His great amazing grace.
Repent, thank God, praise God, Who reigns above,
pray, I do these, then I do know I love.
