God’s Love Brings Us Close Together

I
Though separated by
countless seas and mountains,
we are one people,
with no boundaries between us.
We have different colored skin
and speak different tongues
(la la la la la la la).
Almighty God’s words call to us,
we are raised up before His throne.
There is the elderly,
with hair all white,
and the young, bright and radiant.
Hand in hand,
shoulder to shoulder (hmm),
we walk on together
through wind and rain,
encouraging each other in adversity.
With one mind we fulfill our duty.
Our hearts are connected,
we become confidants in life.
God’s love brings us closer together.
Only with God there is love,
only with love there is family.
All who love God are one family.
We come close together in God’s love.
God’s words are with us as we grow.
Living in the beautiful kingdom,
we worship Almighty God
forever and ever.
II
God’s words are the wellspring
of the living water.
Enjoying God’s words,
our hearts are filled with sweetness.
The chastisement and
the judgment of His words,
purify our corrupt dispositions.
Only by being pruned and dealt with
do we have a human likeness.
In negativity and weakness,
we support each other.
We are together in adversity.
Standing witness, we defeat Satan.
We escape the darkness
and live in the light.
Loyal and obedient,
we are God’s glory made manifest.
Our hearts are connected,
we become confidants in life.
God’s love brings us closer together.
Only with God there is love,
only with love there is family.
All who love God are one family.
We come close together in God’s love.
God’s words are with us as we grow.
Living in the beautiful kingdom,
we worship Almighty God
forever and ever.
III
We know God’s righteousness and beauty.
We experience the innumerable ways
in which God loves us.
Snuggled in the bosom of God,
our lives on earth
are as they are in heaven.
Only with God there is love,
only with love there is family.
All who love God are one family.
We come close together in God’s love.
God’s words are with us as we grow.
Living in the beautiful kingdom,
we worship Almighty God
forever and ever.
La la la la la la, la la la la la.
La la la la la la, la la la la la.
