What is this love except obedience?
Obedience takes great humility,
no more of this just sitting on the fence,
we freely stand with Him Who made us free.
And what do we obey but His commands?
We trust the One Who’s perfect in His trust,
He holds us in the hollow of His hands,
we freely choose to follow what we must.
His first and greatest order is to love,
for God is love, and we who love, obey,
when we love, we obey Who reigns above,
in loving God, there are no shades of gray.
Lord, help me, weak in love, to so love You,
I need not Your command, to love You true.
