Father, Make Us Loving

Father

gen­tle

thought­ful

kind;

Fill us with Thy Spir­it

Help us love each oth­er

more and more each day

Help us follow Je­sus

in the nar­row way.

We would learn of Je­sus

help us here be­low

Follow in His foot­steps

who hath loved us so.

Father

live as in Thy sight;

Thou dost know our long­ings af­ter what is right.

Fill our hearts with kind­ness as we on­ward go

Teach us to be lov­ing

Help us to re­mem­ber

Thou art ev­er near;

Teach us lov­ing­kind­ness

ten­der­ness and cheer.

There is much of sor­row

in this world be­low;

Father

make us lov­ing

Thou hast loved us so.
