Our Motives

Our motives so matter
To take, or to give
Self-serving, or God’s glory
For what do we live?

Never alone
No, never alone
As a child of the King
You are His own.

While not seeking, to suffer
We must lift Jesus, high
Wholly trust Him, and know
Sufficient grace, He’ll supply.

The greatest duty
Placed upon man
Love the Lord, your God
‘Tis the greatest command.

If God, feeds the birds
Then, O how much more
He values our lives
Rich blessings, in store.

So, restoring relationships
In place of cancellation
No longer angry, resentful
God’s loving, transformation.

Who can compare
With our God above?
Jesus’ glory and beauty
Such unspeakable love.

O, such undeserved favor
Overflowing from heaven
Such love for lost sinners
To cleanse out, our old leaven.

And if God so loves each
Forgives, offers salvation
Should we too, not love
Offer others, reconciliation?

How to draw near
To the presence of God
Bow down before Him
In worship, be awed.
