John 15:12-17
This Is My Will
SUANTRAI L.M.
COMMUNITY IN CHRIST
This is My will, My one command,
That love should dwell among you all.
This is My will that you should love
As I have shown that I love you.
No greater love a man can have
Than that he die to save his friends.
You are My friends if you obey
What I command that you should do.
You chose not Me, but I chose you
That you should go and bear much fruit.
I chose you out that you in Me
Should bear much fruit that will abide.
All that I ask My Father, dear,
For My name's sake you shall receive.
This is My will, My one command,
That love should dwell in each, in all.

This is My will, My one command,
That love should dwell among you all.
This is My will that you should love
As I have shown that I love you.

No greater love a man can have
Than that he die to save his friends.
You are My friends if you obey
What I command that you should do.

You chose not Me, but I chose you
That you should go and bear much fruit.
I chose you out that you in Me
Should bear much fruit that will abide.

All that I ask My Father, dear,
For My name's sake you shall receive.
This is My will, My one command,
That love should dwell in each, in all.
