Much Is Required!

 

 

Much is required of God’s children—
We have been so richly blessed!
And clear instructions are given
On how to give Him our best.
As we read The Holy Bible—
The precious guide book of life,
There we find all that is required…
To please our God and live right.

He instructs us to love Him first—
And put Him above all else,
And then we’re to love our neighbor
The way that we love ourselves.
When we obey these commandments
The others fall into place,
And we can live good, righteous lives…
By God’s Spirit and His grace.

We’re instructed to go and tell
The good news of the Master—
Take the Gospel Light to this world
That’s headed for disaster.
Christian, we are given so much
And in each heart burns a fire—
Oh, how we want to measure up
To all our LORD doth require…
And Much Is Required!

 

 Jesus said: “For unto whomsoever much is given,
of him shall be much required.”
“Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”
(Lk 12:48; Mk16:15)
