Can I still love them when they don't
live by my revelation
And they do not agree with my understanding of His message?
Can I still love them when they understand all the mysteries
When they seem above my spiritual standing?
Can I still love them if God has given them a personal revelation
When they live in the grace He has given them?
Can I still love them even when I don't
feel I should
When they avoid me and don't even want to talk to me?
Can I still love them when they say you are not Spirit filled’
When they will not fellowship with me?
Can I still love them when they cast out my name as evil
When they gossip about me behind my back?
God by your grace I will still love them because they could be me
