Thoughts on Christian Love


Lord, you know my heart and all my desires, and the secret things I'll never tell,
Lord, you know them well.
Though I may be young, I see and understand,
that at times like sheep we go astray, and things get out of hand

So I promise to be true to You,
to live my life in purity as unto you.
Waiting for the day, when I hear you say,
"Here is the one I have created just for you."

Until then, O Lord, I will be content, knowing that true love will come someday.
It will only come from You.
'Cause I have seen the suffering that loneliness can cause.
When we choose to give our love away without a righteous cause.

So I promise to be true to You,
to live my life in purity as unto you.
Waiting for the day, when I hear you say,
"Here is the one I have created just for you."

Song Lyrics on Going Out with Non-Christians

From "Truth and Consequences" by the Newsboys

Poster child for the Christian single
Dumped on more than a birdhouse shingle
Bored of the same old crowd, she starts to mingle where she don't belong
All God's bachelors hanging in a bunch
Wolves in Wool-lite beat 'em to the punch
Scored another knockout, barely bought her lunch
What went wrong?
 
Let's talk about real life
Truth and consequences
Coming to our senses
And lies we'd best unlearn
Let's talk about real love
Truth and propaganda
Are you really gonna stand for
A love that waits its turn?
 
I am the voice of the male agenda
Sensitive strong or shy, I tend to
Act any way that could possibly send you
Someplace we can be alone
You're so sure I'm a would-be Christian
Something 'bout the Untamed Heart condition
Love that feminine intuition
Seen that movie, too...

From "That Kinda Girl" by DC Talk

Well I'm looking into hookin' with a lady
And not a girly of the world'y that's shady
But the kinda girl you meet behind the doors of the church
You see, God'll bring her to me so I don't have to search
[...]
Heaven help me, hear my plea
I know there's one who's perfect for me...
