God’s Love for Man Is Most Genuine
Verse 1 (Mom)
My dear, you’re the apple of my eye.
It’s for your happiness, your mommy lives.
I often ask you to study well,
Verse 2 (Daughter)
I know that you love and cherish me,
but demands and stress are just too great.
My heart hurts, and I just can’t do what you ask of me.
I look to death for escape.
Verse 3
(Mom)
Mommy fails to understand you.
I’m so sorry you’ve been through this pain.
(Daughter)
Mommy, I know that you meant well,
but why should people live this way?
Pre-chorus 1 (Mom)
And now I understand the truth,
I see how corrupt mankind is:
pursuing fame, pleasure and fortune,
blind that their life lot is controlled by God.
Pre-chorus 2 (Daughter)
Amid God’s words I’ve awakened.
How empty to seek fame and fortune!
God’s words show me the direction.
Human life comes from knowing truth.
Chorus (Both Unison Duet)
before God we do our duties.
His words guide us to live in the light.
In His presence, we’re so joyful.
We spurn corrupt flesh, fate, prospects,
our liberation brings us joy.
From God we receive truth and life.
Our home is the kingdom of Christ.
Now we enjoy God’s words each day,
before God we do our duties.
His words guide us to live in the light.
In His presence, we’re so joyful.
We spurn corrupt flesh, fate, prospects,
our liberation brings us joy.
From God we receive truth and life.
Our home is the kingdom of Christ.
