On Learning The Greatest Command



Who are we going to do something extra-special for today
to say 'you are loved'


My, how much we fret and suffer 
For our own selfish cause 
When we could just love each other 
And through love, fulfill all laws 

My, how much we want and worry 
Futile fear and fretting cursed 
When we could just trust and worship 
He who loves and loved us first

Matt.22:36-40

Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
