Our Love Was Dead

When I looked at our lives, I could see it
Was falling apart, everything was gone
I looked at myself and at you
Our indifference was all we shared
Cause our Iove was dead
Like a cancerous growth it had spread
Unaware we were dead
Killed by a poison so sure
We've drunk to the dregs
We've drunk to the dregs
Our love was dead

We have thought that our love
Could create something new on this earth
But it was stillborn
We preached a message no-one could hear for our deeds
We said peace but made war
But then God showed the world some true love
A way that could change everything
But we continued just as before, we closed our ears
Just as before, just like before, our love was dead

We longed deep within that anew we
could love once again so deep within
And we longed deep within we could live
A much better life, once again deep within
Jesus is still standing there today
Waiting to show you the way
Looking to give you His love
He could change us today, change us today
If you humble yourself
lf you give it to Him, if you turn to Him

Behind all the walls and masquerades
That's where you'll find Him
That's where you'll find Him
Jesus, that's where I will find You
Stop playing games with Him
Stop playing games with Him
All he wants to say is that He loves you
Loves you, He loves you
That's why, that's why, that's why
He loves you

Give Him room in your heart, open up your heart
Let Him come in, bow your knees for the King
The King is coming, is coming
But we must change to be prepared
And start to love one another, cause we all
Wanted to walk our own ways, we all wanted to build
Our own Kingdoms, and we didn't really want the King to come
and we loved our doctrines more than we loved people!
And we loved our buildings, more than we loved human beings
And we ourselves more than we loved God
Jesus, all I wanna do, all that I want to do is to serve You
You know it's true, Jesus, please forgive us, forgive me
And cleanse me, cleanse me in Your blood, in Your blood
In Your blood, in Your blood, precious blood
Come with Your power
I love You, come, come, oh yeah, oh
