God Put "US" in Jesus 

Before we were thought of, or time had begun,
God placed US with love in the name of His Son.

And each time we pray, in Him we can trUSt,
For there’s no other way to spell JesUS sans US.

We're a pretty big part of His wonderful name,
Love for US filled His heart, and that's why He came.

And His great love for US is the reason He died.
You cannot spell jUStice without US inside.

We were not misled, oh isn’t it grand?
He rose from the dead, with US in His plan.

The stones were bisected, the gold trumpet blew,
He was reSUrrected, returned for US too.

When JesUS left earth at His upward ascension,
He told US there was one thing He jUSt had to mention.

He told US , “Don’t stall, tell the whole world, you mUSt,"
That He loves them all, jUSt like He loves US.

ThUS shining His light is what we mUSt do,
For all have a right to know JesUS too.

Our duty to bestow, His love to discUSs,
He wants them to know, but it all starts with US.
