My Love For You
Jeremy Riddle's 'My Love For You' is a worship song that explores the connection between loving God and obeying His commands. The lyrics emphasize that true love for God is expressed through obedience, caring for the poor, freeing the oppressed, and blessing orphans and widows. The song echoes the idea that we love because God first loved us, and our love should reflect His. It calls believers to faithful, obedient love, reminding them that without love, they have nothing. The song is a heartfelt prayer of commitment to live out love in practical ways.
This is how I love You
I obey Your commands
To love truth and love justice
And my fellow man
To steady the weak
And the hungry to feed
That Christ might be honored
And with me be pleased
For this is the love
The love You have shown
And to love I must echo
The love I have known
So I will be faithful
To love as required
A love shown by obedience
Lord I'll be obedient
This is how I love You
Giving as I've received
The blessings You've lavished
To others in need
To care for the poor
To free the oppressed
To stand for the orphan
And the widow to bless
For this is the love
The love You have shown
And to love I must echo
The love I have known
So I will be faithful
To love as required
A love shown by obedience
Lord I'll be obedient
And if I have not love
Then I truly have
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Here now is love
The love You have shown
And to love I must echo
This love I have known
So I will be faithful
To love as required
A love shown by obedience
Lord I'll be obedient
