56. I LOVE, I LOVE MY MASTER

1. I love, I love my Master,

I will not go out free!

For He is my Redeemer;

He paid the price for me.

I would not leave His service,]

It is so sweet and blest;

And in the weariest moments

He gives the trust rest.

2. My Master shed his life-blood

My vassal life to win,

And save me from the bondage

Of tyrant self and sin.

He chose me for His service,

And gave me power to choose

That blessed; perfect freedom,

Which I shall never lose.

3. I would not halve my service,

His only it must be!

His only – who so loved me,

And gave Himself for me.

Rejoicing and adoring,

Henceforth my song shall be –

“I love, I love my Master,

I will not go out free”

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
