OBEYING THE ONE WE LOVE

“It is not hard to obey when we love the One Whom we obey.” (Saint Ignatius)

Help us love You, Father, to love You in every way.
For if we can love You well, how easy it is to obey.
It’s love of You, dear Father, that helps us love Your laws.
It’s by loving You and Your will, that we can love others without pause.

Help those we love, dear Father, to love You in every way.
May they know Your love for them, may it be You whom they obey.
In Your will is joy, dear Father. In Your will is strength from above.
In Your will is peace and patience. In Your will is truth and love.

May it be You we love, dear Father, Your will we do each day.
May it be You we honor. May it be You Whom we obey.
As we seek You, dear Father, may love be wat we learn.
As we receive Your divine love, may we love others in return.
