What can stand when life breaks down,
What turns this whole world around?
What binds us when we're apart?
What can come when loved
Ones go and sorrow floods the soul?
What can mend a broken heart?

Love steps in when hope departs
When faith is back to the wall
When doubt takes hold of our hearts
Love steps in to break the fall

What beholds an ailing earth,
What cycles death to birth?
What can keep warfare at bay?
What dare defy kings and queens,
What gives a slave voice to sing?
What can chip heartache away?

Love steps in when hope departs
When faith is back to the wall
When doubt takes hold of our hearts
Love steps in to break the fall
