9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. 11 These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.

(John 15:9-11)

Abide in You by Bryson Breakey, Darion Duncan, and Justin Gray

Hope resurrected joy complete

You’re the source of salvation

The one that I can ask anything

With great expectation

Without you I would fail

And I will abide in you

Your love gives me life

You’re the strength that will bring me through

I will abide in you

The truth and the life

You are my joy

No one else satisfies

“We have great reason, O Lord, to be humbled before you, on account of the coldness and insensibility of our hearts, the disorder and irregularity of our lives, and the prevalence of worldly affections within us. Too often have we indulged the tempers which we ought to have subdued, and have left our duty unperformed. O Lord, be merciful to us for your Son Jesus Christ’s sake. Produce in us deep repentance, and a lively faith in that Savior who has died for our sins, and risen again for our justification. Amen.”
