Op Dag 42 van ons Lydenstydreeks #VisioDivina luister ons na ‘n bekende Engelse gesang: “I Give You A New Commandment” deur Bob Hurd.
Die lirieke:
I give unto you
That you love one another
As I have loved you,
That you love one another
As I have loved you.
By this shall all men
Know you are My disciples
If you have love one to another.
Lyrics
Chorus
I give you a new commandment, that you love one another, love one another, love one another as I have loved you.
Vs. 1
At supper Jesus showed his perfect love, taking the role of a servant. He took a towel and a basin of water and washed the feet of his disciples
Vs. 2
If I, your Lord and Master, wash your feet, so must you do for each other. Thus all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another
Vs. 3
There is no greater love than this, giving one’s life for one’s friend. You are my friends if you do what I command you. I call you friends, no longer servants.
