A COMMON LOVE FOR EACH OTHER

A common love for each other

A common gift to the Saviour

A common bond holding us to the Lord

A common strength when we are weary

A common hope for tomorrow

A common joy in the truth of God's word

In his family we can meet each other's needs

We can light each one's path

We can bear each one's grief

As his children, we can comfort each care

We can build each one's faith

We can work, we can share

In his family, all the love that we show

All the help that we give

All the life we bestow

As his children, they're an offering we make

Not expecting return,

Just a gift for his sake ......
