"If ever I loved Thee, Lord Jesus, 'tis now."
I love Thee Lord Jesus!!!
Los Banos, Laguna, Philippines
How I love this song. It refreshes my consecration day by day. If ever that I would tell my love of the Lord, it is now. From moment to moment as long as He lends me breath I will tell Him "I love You, Lord Jesus and will serve You all my life." Amen.
