Create in me a warm heart
Fill my soul with your love
Make me tender and thoughtful
And quick to meet his needs

Make my hands strong for back-rubs
My heart joyful to cheer him
Teach me to know when to let go
Or when to give him space

Chorus
Jesus, Your love is our model
You've shown us what love should be
Only Your love can help me reach the ideal
Jesus, Your love is our model
May Your love be reflected in ours.

Make me into Your image
Teach me to love like You do
Teach me to open my heart to him
To share my joys and my sorrows

Makes me quick to forgive
And quick to say I'm sorry
Teach me to show my love in ways
That are meaningful to him.
