“Love Personified”

Love Personified, God is love

The Father and Son are One

Jesus is light, light is love

Every good and perfect gift is from heaven above

Coming down from the Father of lights

As the Spirit descended upon the Son as a dove.

Our Savior descended from His heavenly throne

To seek and save the lost and to ransom His own

Angels heralded, shepherds awed, wise men sought and brought Him their best, His mother Mary cooed, the baby Jesus cried

Ushering in as Isaiah prophesied

Love personified

We the scapegoats, His beloved bride, He the bridegroom, the lamb of God,  crucified.

Love personified

Bearing the scorn, sin, and shame

So that we could claim our positions and lay our petitions in our brother Jesus’ name

You are the branches, I am the vine

You are mine!

Ah, Love! What requireth thee of me?

Abba, Alpha, Agape others, self-denied

Jesus’ teachings applied

Love personified
