So Great
by Barbara Philbrook

So great is his love that He let His Son die on Calvary,
to provide the choice of Salvation to the likes of you and me.

So great is His love that He beckons those He is aware will partake,
and gives them the knowledge so their decision they can make.

So great is His love that He sent us His Holy Word as a guide by which we should live,
and once we accept an internal interpreter He does give.

So great is His Love that He empowers us with The Holy Ghost,
and we are lovingly cheered on by the Heavenly Host.

So great is His love that we are promised we will never be given more than we can bear,
and also that once we invite Him in He will always be there.

So great is His love that He hears every partition sent His way,
and He takes time to provide answers for the things about which we pray.

So great is His love that if we surrender our selves to Him each day,
He will see to it that it is lived in a productive way.

So great is His love that others need never see our imperfections,
for if our eyes are stayed on Him they will see only His reflections.

So great is His love that He will allow us to take part in His Great Master Plan,
and as we allow it He will reshape us in the palm of his hand.

So great is His love that He allows even one such as I whose  partition He heard,
to tell of His Love and share the truths in His Word.
