I've looked at love from both sides now

(I really don't know love at all)

Love your neighbor
          Love your enemies 1

If you love those who love you, 2
           Any run-of-the-mill sinner can do that. 3

Anyone who loves their son or daughter
                     more than Me
                                 is not worthy of Me. 4

Whoever has been forgiven little
            loves little. 5

Anyone who loves Me
               will obey my teaching.
                           My Father will love them,
                                 and we will come to them
                                          and make our home with them.6
