Behold What Manner of Love
Text: Genesis 1: 26,27 and I John III: 1-3
Music: James G. MacDermid


And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:

And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air,

And over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over ev’ry creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Behold, what manner of love, behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us.

Behold what manner of love that we should be called the sons of God!

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be:

But we know that, when he shall appear, we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed, that we should be called the sons of God!

So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him.
