If I took your sight
And left you blind
If I gave you ears
But made you stone deaf
Would you still love Me?
If you were struck with disease
And had but two months to live
A single parent with several mouths to feed
If your little boy of three got run over in the street
Would you still love Me?
If you worked so hard for all you own
But lost it all in one night alone
If with sweat and tears you built a home
But all it ever brought you was pain and sorrow
Would you still love Me?
Would you still love Me?
If you had no bread
Would you still love Me?
If you had no place to lay your head
Would you still love Me?
If your friends were all gone
Would you still love Me?
If your world became sunset at dawn
Or do you just love me
For what I can give –
‘Sugar’ and ‘honey’
And all that makes life sweet
Do you really love Me?
Would you give your all for Me?
Do you truly love Me?
Enough to die for Me?
Please ponder this deeply
And let Me know the truth
I will not believe except I hear it from you
That you REALLY love Me.
