The Father Himself loveth you. (John 16:27) |
Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. (John 11:5) |
The fruit of the Spirit is love. (Gal. 5:22) |
Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied. (1 Peter 1:2) |
May the grace of Christ our Saviour, And the Father’s boundless love, With the Holy Spirit’s favor, Rest upon us from above! |
Thus may we abide in union With each other and the Lord, And possess in sweet communion, Joys which earth can ne’er afford. |
