467- Life Is Great! So Sing About It

Christian Life: Joy and Peace

1

  • Life is great! So sing about it,
  • As we can and as we should-
  • Shop and buses, towns and people,
  • Village, farmland, field and wood,
  • Life is great and life is given;
  • Life is lovely, free and good.

2

  • Life is great!- what ever happens,
  • Snow or sunshine, joy or pain,
  • Hardship, grief or disillusion,
  • Suffering that I can't explain-
  • Life is great if someone loves me,
  • Holds my hand and calls my name.

3

  • Love is great!- the love of lovers,
  • Whispered words and longing eyes;
  • Love that gazes at the cradle
  • Where a child of loving lies;
  • Love that lasts when youth has faded,
  • Bends with age, but never dies.

4

  • Love is giving and receiving-
  • Boy and girl, or friend with friend;
  • Love is bearing and forgiving
  • All the hurts that hate can send;
  • Love's the greatest way of living,
  • Hoping, trusting to the end.

5

  • God is great! in Christ He loved us,
  • As we should, but never can-
  • Love that suffered, hoped and trusted
  • When disciples turned and ran,
  • Love that broke through death forever.
  • Praise that loving, living Man!
