In a world of broken hearts, love is just a word
Used so often, what it means is blurred
People grow so hungry for a love they can believe
Will they find it here in you and me?

Oh, you know you must be careful
If it's love you're promising
You can never, never, ever speak it lightly
It should cost you everything

If you're gonna call it love
Oh, then let it be forever
Let it be forever

If you're gonna call it love
Oh, the let it be forever

Love has come from God and in this love we share
People see an image of Him there
It can be an invitation that leads to deeper truth
The kind of love they find in me and you
Oh, but we can be a witness
Right before their eyes
A living love that's rooted in
The very love of Christ

I don't know what this world may think of love
Oh, but let our hearts remain true
To the notion that love goes beyond just emotion
Into faith, into hope, into trust
