“Love must be sincere” as Paul said it should
“Hate what is evil, cling to what is good”
“Be devoted to one another in love”
Versus self, “honor one another above”
“Never be lacking in zeal”
“Keep your spiritual fervor” real
“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction”
“Faithful in prayer”, act without contradiction
“Share with the Lord’s people who are in need”
“Practice hospitality”, putting word into deed
These verses focus on putting our love into action
Acts which are better than any theme park attraction
Easy as it may be for these words to say
It is hard to apply them every hour, every day
But encouraging are these key words from Paul
Dear God, may I never be lacking in zeal for your call
Let me be joyful, patient, faithful, and caring
And my blessings with others always sharing
If only one phrase from this I should remember
“Cling to what is good” from January through December
