John writes to guide the faithful hearts
To love one another & play their parts
He reminds them of the truth they know
That God is light, His love will show
“Walk in the light, shun every sin
For fellowship with God comes from within
Confess your wrongs, receive His grace
And in His presence find your place”
He warns against deceivers who deny
That Jesus came from God on high
Believe in Christ, the Word made flesh
And love will grow, your heart enmesh
Love one another, as God loves you
For perfect love casts out all fear too
Do not love the world or fleeting gain
But follow Christ through joy & pain
Children of God, remain steadfast & true
Abide in Him in all you do
Keep commandments, live with care
Show mercy, kindness, always share
He speaks of sin, temptation, & strife
But calls for faith & abundant life
The Spirit witnesses to hearts sincere
And in His love, the Lord draws near
Let hearts be bold, let hands extend
Love in action, to foe & friend
And keep the faith, walk in the light
Till Christ returns, forever bright
