For God so loved the world
that He gave his only son.
Could you ever give up a child,
even only one?
Do we love the world enough
to do what God may ask?
To love our neighbors as ourselves
should be an easy task.
Respect each other's differences.
Listen closely when others speak.
Compromise is the solution
to the peace that we all seek.
Patience is a virtue
and a necessary skill.
You may not always agree
but trust sometimes you will.
It's been said, "Be slow to anger
and be quick to forgive."
That is still good advice
for how we all should live.
If we really love this world
we all must do our part.
Show kindness to each other
and keep Jesus in your heart.
