the fruit of love – v3

Abiding within our Savior
living within Christ Jesus
carrying on His message
His ministry of love;
Bearing fruits for the kingdom
the fruit of unending love
shared richly with our neighbors
just as Jesus loved;
Feeling God’s Spirit
His presence within us
leading us forward
to be Christ’s hands and feet.
