There are many people who will say they're Christians
And they live like Christians on the Sabbath day
But from Monday morning till the coming Sunday
They will find their neighbor all along the way
Oh, you don't love God
If you don't love your neighbor
If you gossip about him
If you never have mercy
If he gets into trouble
And you don't try to help him
Then you don't love God
If you don't love your neighbor
Then you don't love God
In the Holy Bible
In the book of Matthew
Read the 18th chapter
In the 21st verse
Jesus plainly tells us that we must have mercy
There's a special warning in the 35th verse
Oh, you don't love God
If you don't love your neighbor
If you gossip about him
If you never have mercy
If he gets into trouble
And you don't try to help him
Then you don't love your neighbor
Then you don't love God
There's a God almighty
And you've got to love him
If you want salvation
And a home
Oh, you don't love God
If you say you love him
While you hate your neighbor
Then you don't have religion
You just told a lie
Oh, you don't love God
If you don't love your neighbor
If you gossip about him
If you never have mercy
If he gets into trouble
And you don't try to help him
Then you don't love your neighbor
Then you don't love God
No, you don't love your neighbor
Then you don't love God
