You taught me how to love

This is a song I wrote some time ago.

You taught me how to love when all else was failing
You taught me how to love, You showed me how to care
You taught me how to love, You showed me the way Lord
for when I needed You, You was always there
By grace am I saved, through faith not of myself
by grace am I saved, through faith alone
You taught me how to love, You showed me the way Lord
for when I needed You You was always there

You taught me not to fear when all around was failing
You taught me not to fear, You showed me how to stand
You taught me not to fear, You showed me the way Lord
You said 'Build upon the rock, don't build on shifting sand.'
By grace am I saved, through faith not of myself
by grace am I saved, through faith alone.
By grace am I saved, through faith not of myself
by grace am I saved, it is the gift of God.

'And without faith it is impossible to please Him, 
for whoever would draw near to God
must believe that He exists 
and that He rewards those who seek Him.'  
Hebrews ch. 11 v.6

1 John 4:8 - But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
1 John 4:16 - We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.

Amen. Great lyrics.

God bless.

Hi Martha Jane, thankyou for your lovely comment. Blessings to you too.

Hi Irina, yes, God is love, and it is such a pity that many in the world do not love as we are supposed to. His Word says that in the end times there will be wars and rumours of wars, and that is just what is happening. Thank God that Jesus will return to take up the remnant. God bless.

Hi Victor, thank you for your kind comment, our God is great eh? God bless you as you journey on in the Lord.

Dear Brenda,
Indeed we are saved by faith alone. That is, believing that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and the only way to salvation.
Blessings to you and your family.

Lovely, Brenda! I would also love to hear you sing it! Praise God that we are saved by grace through faith, not by works. May God bless you and yours.

Brenda said...

Hi Frank, Yes, Jesus is the only way to salvation, there is only One mediator between man and God. Blessings to you and Alex.
