Lord, help me love my neighbors:
Even when I don't want to.
Give me the strength that I need,
So holiness I'll pursue,
When hate arises in my life,
It, dear Lord, help me then face:
Give to me what I need most,
So hate with love I'll replace.
Help me give light to neighbors,
So that they will come to see:
It's when we love our neighbors,
Earth will then have more beauty.
Help me love my neighbors, Lord,
Lack of love I can't afford.
