Set apart because,
He first loved us . . .
are those who have
in God faith and trust.
A life separated,
from worldly ways
devoted to Jesus
for all our days.
His Spirit within us,
now with Him we abide
no longer is there
an emptiness inside.
A life to God submitted,
holy and consecrated
now understand why
they were even created.
Set apart all because,
we were first loved . . .
now we are the children
of the One who’s Beloved!
~~~~~~~~
1 John 4:19
We love him,
because he
first loved us.
Matthew 3:17
And lo a voice from heaven,
saying, This is my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased.

Lord have I told You lately,
just how much I love You . . .
have I expressed my gratitude
for all, for me You do?
Have I sung to You my praise,
for Your mercy and Your grace
have I told you I can’t wait
till I can thank You face to face?
Lord have I stressed to You,
the faith in You I have found
have I said I appreciate You
for keeping my heart sound?
Have I expressed You keep me,
pressing on each new day
have I told You how delighted
You’re my Light, Truth and Way?
Lord if I have neglected,
telling You these things lately
I want to make it clear right now
it’s how I feel about You daily!

Have you considered,
God’s love and its length
have you thought about
the power of its strength?
Do you know it stretches,
from here to eternity
do you believe it includes
all of humanity?
Do you comprehend,
God’s love is measureless
do you understand
His mercy is limitless?
Do you perceive God had,
from the beginning a plan
can you conclude Jesus
came to fill the empty span?
Can you embrace His love,
and its infinite distance . . .
have you contemplated
the truth of its existence?
Have you considered,
loving God too
just because He first . . .
showed His love for you?

John 3:16
For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
1 John 4:19
We love him,
because he
first loved us.
Ephesians 3:18 -19
May be able to comprehend
with all saints what is the breadth,
and length, and depth, and height;
And to know the love of Christ,
which passeth knowledge, that
ye might be filled with all the
fulness of God.

Because I am loved,
I am humble . . .
under my cares
I don’t crumble.
Because I am humble,
I am set free
from the devil
I am able to flee.
Because I am free,
I am forgiven
to holy living
I am driven.
Because I am forgiven,
I am saved
to the world’s ways
I’m no longer a slave.
Because I am saved,
I am strong
no more desire
I have to do wrong.
Because I was loved,
by Jesus first . . .
after righteousness
I hunger and thirst!
~~~~~~~~
1 Peter 5:6-10
Humble yourselves therefore under
the mighty hand of God, that he
may exalt you in due time:
Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God,
and his righteousness; and all these
things shall be added unto you.
1 John 4:19
We love him,
because he first loved us.

Tell someone you love them,
just because . . .
let them see your appreciation
just because.
You don’t need to buy a gift,
or a card from a store
just tell someone how much
them you cherish and adore.
Tell someone you love them,
just because . . .
let them see you truly care
just because.
You don’t need a special day,
to show them your affection
everyday you can make
this your heartfelt confession.
Tell someone you love them,
just because . . . .
for Jesus loved us first
just because!

1 John 4:19
We love him,
because
he first loved us.
John 13:34-35
“A new commandment I give unto you,
That ye love one another; as I have
loved you, that ye also love one another.
By this shall all men know that
ye are my disciples, if ye have
love one to another.”

Some day’s I need,
a blood transfusion
with God’s grace
I need an infusion.
Some day’s I need,
to be reminded
what life was like
when I was blinded.
Some day’s I need,
a blood transfusion
with God’s love
I need an infusion.
Some day’s I need,
a reality check
recall when I was
a miserable wreck.
Some day’s I need,
a blood transfusion
with God’s mercy
I need an infusion.
Some day’s I need,
to be immersed
in why it was Jesus . . .
who loved me first!

I lift my eyes heavenward,
till I envision in my mind . . .
the glory that’s awaiting me
the day with Jesus I will be
My heart swells up with joy,
a chorus of praise begins
for all God is doing for me
till the day with Him I will be.
I feel the burning in my soul,
as my trust begins to flare
I know my hope will carry me
till the day with my God I will be.
My spirit sings sweet melodies,
eternal peace they usher in
oh, the bliss that’s awaiting me
on the day with my Savior I will be.
I lift my eyes heavenward,
till I envision in my mind . . .
the day with my Lord I will be
all because He first loved me!
