God does love us,
Loves us as we are,
Flawed, silly, cracked creations,
With misguided good intentions,
Ones to poorly reasoned to express,
We do need His holy direction,
Before the sun goes down today.

God does love us,
Loves us as we are,
Weary, worn-out, dazed soldiers,
Battling still the his and her’s,
When it’s time to harvest,
We’re too weak to bring
The bounty in.

God does love us,
Do we love him?
In our rush to grab the brass ring
Have we forgotten the most important thing?
Is yielding to His Lordship,
It makes His perfect heart sing,
When we willfully obey.
