BREAD SCENE 7 - Do you love me more than these



When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." John 21:15 


Do you love me more than these?
Do you love me more than these?
Will you love me when your heart is low
When you do not know what’s ahead.
Will you love me when your life seems slow
Though the future now you may dread?

Lord you know that I love you;
Yes, you must know I love you.
Though I left your side and your love denied;
Though I said that I never knew;
Knew that you alone could change my poor heart
By the love of God found in you.

Feed my sheep, friend, with my bread.
Feed my lambs, friend, in my stead;
Through my love in you, share my word that’s true
For this word I give now to you;
Through my love in you, share my word that’s true,
Share this bread of life I give you.

“When one has once fully entered the realm of love, the world — no matter how imperfect — becomes rich and beautiful, it consists solely of opportunities for love.”

― Søren Kierkegaard, Works of Love
