If We Love Him
I wanted to simplify the eighth notes in the original song to make it easier for a youth (or adult) to keep the timing. I added an intro that went well with the melody. I also threw in an ending line that seemed to give a little more closure to the song.
Love is more than just a word;
It’s more than just a feeling in our souls.
Love is why He came to earth,
To be the hope we turn to
When we feel alone.
He has given us direction
So that He can bless us with His grace.
As we show Him that we love Him,
Follow what He says,
We’ll be forever changed.
We can love like He loves us
When we walk in His footsteps.
If we love, if we love Him, we will show Him.
We’ll go and serve our neighbor with an open heart,
Find the heavy hands and try to lift them up,
Live the way He lived and do the things He taught if we love Him.
If we love Him.
If we love Him.
If we love Him.
When we love, everything changes.
His love sustains us.
So we’ll take all the love that He gave us,
That He gave us,
And go and serve our neighbor with an open heart,
Find the heavy hands and try to lift them up,
Live the way he lived and do the things
He taught,
If we love Him.
If we love Him.
