Lyrics

Put On Love

Written by: Todd Trebony

Though I could speak,
with tongues of angels
i won't have the words to say,
i'm needing something more.
And though i can see,
the future coming
with eyes we cannot see,
always wanting more.

So put on love,
put on tender mercies,
bearing one another,
showing them that you care.
And put on grace,
forgive one another,
even as God in Christ did for you.
But above all these things
above all these things,
above all these things,
Put on Love.

And if i had faith,
that could take away mountains,
my defense still feels so weak.
God, i'm needing more.
Well, i could give all away
and though i'm still standing,
without Your love inside of me
it's all ignored.

No longer lifting myself up,
no longer having my own way.
no longer lifting myself up
no longer having my own way.
