Love is such a small word that rolls off our tongues
Do we ever consider it’s true deeper meaning?
It floats out of our mouths as we turn to go
Love you - with that, we just carry on and walk away
We tag it on to material objects, like our favourite mug, pen or socks
But do we ever consider the love that was gifted to us from above?
An invisible, all encompassing love that comes with no hidden strings attached
What was God’s expectation of us in return for his love?
All He asks of us is obedience
Ten Commandments that what he gave us
If we can follow and abide by these ten simple rules
Our lives will be fuller, richer and we’d be more considerate of others
Love - it surely is the greatest blessing that can be bestowed upon us
Love and obedience - God coupled them together - hand in hand
So let’s remember his guidelines that He delivered with love
