The Lord longs for us;
His heart’s one desire
Is for a relationship with us.

He really loves us;
But of what good is it
If we don’t love Him in return?

The fire of His love for us is so great
It burns fiercely in Him;
Oh what suffering we take Him through
When we withhold our love from Him.

Great is the measure …
So great, so deep …
Great is the measure …
So great is the measure of our Father’s love.

He really loves us;
But of what good is it
If we don’t love Him in return? -- A great poem, and this verse says so much. Thomas
