John Elefante - This Is What Love Is

Lyrics

Endless days and long hard journeys.
Mending hearts forever yearning.
This is what love is,
This is what love is.
Healing blind men by his touch.
Knowing that he cares so much.
This is what love is,
this is what love is.
And teaching us to love each other
as we love ourselves.
And laying down our lives for someone else.

And even when we fall,
he loves us through it all.
His gentle guiding hand
keeps understanding.
He knows the tears we cry,
he knows our hearts may lie.
For us again, he'd die.
That's what love is.

Suffering the world's rejection,
sacrifice and resurrection.
This is what love is,
this is what love is.
And in this world we live in,
there are no guarantees.
But there's one thing I'm sure of:
He died and rose for me.
His love has surely stood the test of time.

And even when we fall,
he loves us through it all.
His gentle guiding hand
keeps understanding.
He knows the tears we cry,
he knows our hearts may lie.
For us again, he'd die.
That's what love is.

He came and gave his life so we would know
He is what love is.
Now I know what love is.

And even when we fall,
he loves us through it all.
His gentle guiding hand
keeps understanding.
He knows the tears we cry,
he knows our hearts may lie.
For us again, he'd die.
That's what love is.
He would do it all again.
He would die for us again.
Cause that's what love is.

Every Season
by Nichole Nordeman

Every evening sky, an invitation
To trace the patterned stars
And early in July, a celebration
For freedom that is ours
And I notice You
In children's games
In those who watch them from the shade
Every drop of sun is full of fun and wonder
You are summer

And even when the trees have just surrendered
To the harvest time
Forfeiting their leaves in late September
And sending us inside
Still I notice You when change begins
And I am braced for colder winds
I will offer thanks for what has been and what's to come
You are autumn

And everything in time and under heaven
Finally falls asleep
Wrapped in blankets white, all creation
Shivers underneath
And still I notice you
When branches crack
And in my breath on frosted glass
Even now in death, You open doors for life to enter
You are winter

And everything that's new has bravely surfaced
Teaching us to breathe
What was frozen through is newly purposed
Turning all things green
So it is with You
And how You make me new
With every season's change
And so it will be
As You are re-creating me
Summer, autumn, winter, spring

So many things I've meant to say
So much I've meant to show
It's easy letting time go by
And to think somehow you'll know
So I wrote this song to just make sure
You never doubt it's true
That I thank God for you
I thank God for you

You spend yourself so freely
In the things you do for me
You're always there to lift me up
When I'm less than I should be
To earn the kind of love you give
There's nothing I could do
And I thank God for you
I thank God for you

I thank God because He's given me
A lover and a friend
With a heart that I can trust in
Through it all until the end
I thank God because you're more
Than I had ever hoped to find
No one else this side of heaven
Gives me so much peace of mind

The years have gone so quickly
Since we changed to one from two
But time has just intensified
The bond I share with you
And, yes, I'd do it all again to love you as I do
I thank God for you
I thank God for you
