Teach Me To Love Lord

Teach me to love Lord
Teach me to love like you do me
Teach me to serve Lord
Teach me to serve like you do me
Teach me of faith Lord
So only on you will I cling
Give me your grace Lord
For only through you am I made clean

Oh Lord your love's so deep
It makes me confused
To know how much I mean
To a Father like you
You sent your Son to die
Though this world called you a lie

I wanna love Lord
Even love my enemy
I wanna serve Lord
Put everyone else before me
Grow me in faith Lord
So I can be used miraculously
But give me your grace Lord
As I cry out to you on bended knee

Oh Lord your love's so deep
It makes me confused
To know how much I mean
To a Father like you
You sent your Son to die
Though this world called you a lie

Show them your love Lord
Show them how you love me
How when I turned away Lord
It was you that pursued me
And when I lost faith Lord
You never lost faith in me
So now I give you praise Lord
For you alone are worthy

What a beautiful poem. It has so much meaning. Did you write that?

Did you write that!? It's absolutely beautiful! I wish I had that much talent to write poetry... I mean I LOVE writing and I've always been told I'm a great writer, but I have never written anything that good.

Thanks for the comment, by the way! You seem to be very dedicated yourself... to God. And that's great!

Thankyou.
Well, usually don't write poetry. I more into story writting, but sometimes I try. Maybe I should explore poetry a bit more.

And thank you so much for the advice! It really means a lot and it helped too... Thanks again! =]
