Oh dear Lord, the God of love,
Teach us how to love like you;
Help us to love our neighbors,
To you Lord, draw us close to.
When we want to do what's wrong,
Help us, Lord, to do your will;
Give us courage that we need,
Your peace in our hearts instill.
Hate don't let enter in us,
Allow love that is holy;
Faith, help us have in you, Lord,
Bestow on us, Lord, mercy.
Show us how to love and live,
Give us courage to forgive.
