love my neighbor

not as me
not how I love myself
we are to love
as Christ loved us
love my neighbor
part of God’s family
with holy worthy
forgiving them
even as he died on the cross
forgiving me as well
Christ’s sacrifice the model
how we are to love
to love our neighbor not as ourselves
to love as God loves us
