The best love for the Lord

1
Loving You, Lord’s all I’m living for;
Loving You, Lord, to the uttermost.
Lord, forgive me if I’ve left my first love,
That’s the bridal love to You.
You are more than any one I love.
You are more than anything I have,
Even my dear self; nothing can compare
To my beloved Bridegroom.
  I give You the first place in all things by faith.
Let nothing take Your place in all my heart.
Infuse me with Yourself abundantly
’Til we meet, dear Lord.
I’ll love You with the best love.
2
You’ve the right to take all that I love,
But replace it with Yourself much more.
You are what I need, give Yourself to me,
Do not give all that I want.
Everything is sure to pass away,
Everyone is going their own way.
But I still have You and You have me too,
Loving one another’s sweet.
3
I treasure my time alone with You,
Just to gain the best love You long for.
My dearest Husband, draw me with Yourself
Into Your chambers right now.
Be the first in all my work and life,
Be the first in all my service too.
In relationships, You must be the first;
Have preeminence in me.

The Lord has the right to take away all that take His place... but the best part is He replaces those things with His dear, loving Self... how foolish I can be at times. Nothing compares to Him. He is everything I desire and more. Amen dear Lord Jesus... "till we meet again, I'll love You with the best love."

Let (nothing)... Take Your place in all my heart.. Not service, not relationships, not anything!... Just gain the best love You long for.. Gain my love for You alone. Lord I repent that many times these other things have been more important than You... Somehow I lost sight of You, even in my service.. Lord forgive me. Make home in all my heart. Have preeminence in me! I still love You Lord, and You love me too.. This love relationship would mean more to me than anything else, even I would be willing to drop all of it for You.. Recover my heart.. To do the first works.. Thank you Lord for this reconciling ministry and this precious hymn...
