Sometimes Love

(album: Deep Enough To Dream - 1997)

Is our world spinning backwards?
What has brought about this change?
Can't you see that people aren't the same

Wish I were dreaming
And could wake up from my sleep
Find us all the way we used to be

'Cause the love that used to be is dying
Is anybody even tryin'?
And I don't know how, I don't know why
But something in my soul is crying

Listen

Sometimes love has to drive a nail into its own hand
Sometimes love has to drive a nail into its own hand, into its own hand

One pair of Hands broke some bread and washed some feet
Opened eyes and soothed an angry sea
Belong to a Man who could see our deepest need
And showed us love the way it has to be

'Cause He knew the price that love requires
And He laid down His own desires
He stretched out His hands to save His friends
And said 'no other love is higher'

So listen to me now singing

Sometimes love has to drive a nail into its own hand, into its own hand
Sometimes love has to drive a nail into its own hand, into its own hand

Love can change us, love can make a way
Only love can change us, love can make a way
Only Jesus' love can change us, love can make a way
Only Jesus' love can change us, love can make a way

Love can change us, love can make a way
Love can change us, love can make a way

Wish I were dreaming
And could wake up from my sleep
And find us all the way we used to be
