“God Is Love” (1 John 4:7, 8)
God is love, and he in - vites us, ‘Walk with me and love my way.’ Love of truth moves us to ac - tion; Love of God moves us to love. Nev - er let re - sent - ment lead you; May it nev - er take your hand.
When we love both God and neigh - bor, Gra- cious deeds will fill each day. When we fail he seeks to help us; By his strength we rise a - bove. Look to God, and he will guide you; He will teach you these com - mands: R.H.
There - in lies the key to liv - ing; There - in lies the life we seek. Love is pure and nev - er jeal - ous; Love is kind and bears all things. Love of God and love of neigh - bor, Ev - ’ry - thing that love should be.
Christ - like love will nev - er fail us. Christ - like love through us will May we grow to love our broth - er. May we taste what true love May we al - ways show to oth - ers God - like love, yes, ten - der

Enduring to the End (Matthew 24:13)
God’s Word and all it prom - is - es Give rea - son to en - dure. Main - tain the love you had at first, Which some - how could be lost. All those en - dur - ing to the end Are those who will be saved.
The things you’ve learned and come to love Are all well - found - ed and sure. De - spite the tri - als you will meet, En - dure no mat - ter the cost. The book of life will list their names, A rec - ord clear - ly en-graved.
Be sta - bi - lized in ho - ly faith, Keep - ing God’s day close in mind. What - ev - er test may come your way, Nev - er yield to doubt or fear. So let en - dur - ance be your aim; Let it have its work com - plete.
Stand firm in your in - teg - ri - ty; By tests you will be re - fined. Je - ho - vah will pro - vide es - cape, Our God ev - er will be near. Je - ho - vah’s fa - vor you will know; With joy you will be re - plete.
(See also Heb. 6:19; Jas. 1:4; 2 Pet. 3:12; Rev. 2:4.)
