Love Wins

When someone's all alone and standing on the edge
Somebody reaches out and pulls 'em in
Love wins
When someone's running out of places they can run
Ashamed of their mistakes and things they've done
When someone opens up a door with open arms says come on in
Love wins

Love is patient, love is kind
Love don't care who's wrong or right
Doesn't envy, doesn't boast, it doesn't quit
It's not selfish, it's not proud
Love's the noise above the loud
It never fails, it forgets and it forgives
Love wins

When a husband leaves the house and slams the door
Hears her say that she don't love him anymore
But after twenty years together they thank god they tried again
Love wins

Love is patient, love is kind
Love don't care who's wrong or right
It doesn't envy, it doesn't boast, it doesn't quit
It's not selfish, it's not proud
Love's the noise above the loud
It never fails, it forgets and it forgives
Love wins

When we don't have to teach our kids
That beauty's deeper than the skin
And peace on earth is more than just a wish
When we let each other pray
In our own different ways
Hold out our hands and open up our fists

Love wins
Love wins

Love is patient, love is kind
Love don't care who's wrong or right
Doesn't envy, doesn't boast, it never quits
It's not selfish, it's not proud
Love's the noise above the loud
It never fails, it forgets and it forgives
Love wins
