Love Your Enemies

Murder’s no temptation,

Adultery’s not my thing

But thou shalt love thine enemies

Now that can be a pain

I really do hate lying

Have no desire to steal

The God of Heaven

Is my God

To me He’s very real

But blessing those who curse me

Do good when I’m done bad

That’s very foreign to my ways

More likely I’ll get mad

So what to do oh what to do

It goes right to my core

Well Lord please bless my enemies

And then Lord bless me more.
