Help Us to Love

Mmm, no

Mmm, yeah

There's a love so high (that you cannot get over)

That same love's so wide (it'll take forever just to get round it)

But love died somewhere

Behind that cross you wear, you're afraid when you look at me

That ain't real love

Not the kind from above, hmm

But there's a friend of mine (that stays closer than a brother)

Oooh, love laid down his life (so why do we still fight one another?)

All this hate I see on the TV screen

In my country 'tis of thee

God help us to love, to love the way that you love me

Hmmm, God help us to love the way that you love me, oh oh

This world is weeping, hurting, broken and begging for change

Oh yeah

But still we marching, praying, dying, and things stay the same

When will we see?

Till everyone's free

There'll never be peace between you and me

God, your love is the cure

For the rich and the poor

God, please will you open our eyes?

'Cause I want a love so high (that you cannot get over)

Oooh, I want a love so wide (it'll take forever just to get round it)

No, no, no, no, no

But it don't come cheap

It takes everything to make love more than a dream

God help us to love (god help us to love)

God help us to love (this world needs your love)

We need your love (what we need now is love)

Fill us with your love, Lord (unconditional love)

We need your love (rain down on us, your love)

Oh, we need your love (fill us please with your love)

God help me to love the way that you love me
