Love Said Not So

Life was bitter to the core
There was nothing to live for until love came
And even second times around happiness could not be found until love came

I was left alone
My heart was breaking
Thought was my own
Soul was aching

Tears covered me
Weeping through the whole night
And I need some relief
Joy comes in the morning

I've been searching for
Many years now
The key to life's door
I need to know how

Brought to my knees
Savior can you help me
And was led to believe
A failure I was to be

Well his love showed me, love said not so
Even with the odds against me
Love showed me, love said not so

Without a reason or cause peace and joy makes no pause
Until love came
Having no hope at all and not another one to call
Until love came

I was left alone
My heart was breaking
Thought was my own
Soul was aching

Tears covered me
Weeping through the whole night
And I need some relief
Joy comes in the morning

I've been searching for
Many years now
The key to life's door
I need to know how

Brought to my knees
Savior can you help me
And was led to believe
A failure I was to be

Keep on holding on
Love showed me, love said no
Love told me don't let go
Love showed me, love said not so

Love said not so

That's what he told me
He told me not so
Hey, I want to tell everybody
You are my love and my prize possession
Because of you I've got pride and joy
Can you help me brother

You are my love and my prize possession
(Love showed me)
Because of you I've got pride and joy
(Love said not so)
Oh can you say it again (Lord)

Tell the world it's love everlasting, hope
Everlasting, joy everlasting
I've got joy
You see I've got love everlasting, hope
Everlasting, joy everlasting
I've got joy
