Let Us Love
by Deborah Ann Belka

Let us not love in idle words,
that simply roll off our tongues.
Let us love in truthful actions,
and deeds that are left unsung.

Let us not love with conditions,
that requires more of another.
Let us love in a forgiving measure,
bracing and lifting up each other.

Let us not love over factors,
that causes us to clash and fight.
Let us love with assuring hearts,
filled with joy and His delight.

Let us not love in competition,
that causes one to win or to lose.
Let us love with honest declarations,
His truth be in the terms we choose.

Let us not love with a lofty heart,
that brings or puts another down.
Let us love with hope and bold faith,
so others can see the truth we've found.

Let us love with pure, honest deeds,
so our conduct awes and inspires;
another's life to turn to our Lord,
for that is what His heart desires.

Philippians 2: 1-3
