All who live in love live in God, and God lives in them
(1 John 4:16; NLT).
1. We are your body;
We are your bones;
We are your flesh
And your blood.
2. We are your temple;
We are your home;
We are your priests
And your love.
3. You are our Shepherd;
You are our Guide;
You are our staff
And our rod.
4. You are our Saviour;
You are our Friend;
You are our Lord
And our God.
