Meaning of Love

All the things I thought were mine don’t matter anymore.

Dreams and schemes for money have all fallen on the floor.

Cause I’ve seen my face reflected in the tears of a child,

And the greed for empty feelings has erased my childlike smile.

Can you teach me the meaning of love?

I thought the grass was greener, over on the other side.

So I left the ones who loved me, had to hold on to my pride.

I fell so fast and far no one could reach me where I am,

And I knew God’s grace was endless, when He took me by the hand.

He began to teach me the meaning of love, of lo--ve

Cause I’ve seen the fears of a child as he hungered for the things in life, that could make him smile.

And I’ve heard the cries of a mother as her tears fell on the

face of her child, that she cradled in her arms.

And I know, I know, there is more to life then what I make or steal.

Cause those things don’t matter when your standing in the cold.

So I fall, I fall, on my knees, lift my voice to God in prayer.

Asking His forgiveness. Cause a broken life is all I have to give.

It’s not much, but it’s all I have to give.

Take this heart of stone oh Lord and break it on the Rock.

Can’t you take this empty soul of mine and fill it to the top?

Won’t you take my hand, and lead me out of the things that I’ve become

Cause the things that matter were the things I lost,

but through your death you won.

When you rose like the sun, and set me free.

I fell so fast and far no one could reach me where I am,

And now I know God’s grace is endless, cause He took me by the hand.

And He taught me the meaning of love, of love.
