Keep the love of God in your heart

Representative Text

1 Would you be a help to others,
As they toil along life’s road;
Would you fill their lives with sunshine,
And with Christ’s love ease their load?

Refrain:
Keep the love of God in your heart;
Keep the love of God in your heart.
It will make you more like Jesus;
Keep the love of God in your heart.

2 Would you make life worth the living;
Ever brighter day by day,
Till in Heav’n you see His glory,
And with Him abide for aye? [Refrain]

3 There’s a peace that passeth knowledge,
Which the Savior’s love ensures.
Will you take Him as your Master,
Trusting Him, whose love endures? [Refrain]
