This song expressed the heart of the apostle Paul and is a great model for us in our love for new believers we care about. It is a quote from Philippians 1:8,9.
For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you, with the affection of Christ Jesus. x2
And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more, with knowledge and with all discernment x2
For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you, with the affection of Christ Jesus. x2
