Let love be without hypocrisy,
Love shouldn’t hide behind a mask;
My love should show the real me,
The same from you, God would ask.
My kindness must be without agenda,
Gentleness with no hidden motive;
This command, God does render,
This, His love’s bright candle votive.
Love must always be sincere,
What you see is what you get;
I must show you my heart here,
Or you and I have never met.
Genuine is the heart of Christ,
For pride is born of fear;
Love’s own boldness melts the ice,
For it shows the bearer here.
“Let love be without hypocrisy.”--Romans 12:9
The word hypocrisy comes from the greek hupocrites, which means actor. In those days, actors wore masks to portray their characters. But then it was obvious it was just an act.
