Wouldn't it be nice
If more Love existed
That hate would decease
And the world be less twisted
I long for that day
That day that will surely come
When we discover a land of peace
Where we all rejoice as one
One family of trust
A bond of no judgment
Oh wouldn't that be nice...
Can you even imagine it?
I know I can.
In fact, there is such a place
Where Love is full of truth
Where Love is full of grace
If home is where the heart is
Then where do you reside?
Is Love at the center?
Does it make you come alive?
I don't know about you,
But it's hard to find it here
This world is so dark
Filled with so many tears
So where is our home?
Shall I dare we fix our gaze
Beyond the clouds of glory
And into the gates of praise
Where there is no suffering
Where there is no pain
Where we can be free
And have nothing to gain
My heart longs for this
This home of peace and Love
It's grown weary of the world
Can it only rest up above?
The time has come
For our hearts to grow
To reach out to the lonely
And to let everyone know
That they are deeply Loved
By their very own Creator
For He Loves us so much
That He gave us a Savior
Do you want to know the secret?
True Love did survive
It came through a death
A death brought back to life
Love came into the world
But we did not understand
So we rejected true Love
We thought he was only a man
But although he was beaten
Although he was bruised
He carried that rugged cross
To carry on the good news
The good news is this
True Love is alive
And his arms are open
Yes, they are open wide
True Love is a man
And this he will always be
So won't you let him in?
Will you let him set you free?
Oh won't you run to him?
He longs for your embrace.
If you are looking for Love,
Just look upon his face.
You see, Heaven is my home
But have you ever thought
That it's where we all belong
The price is already bought
As I have walked this path
This path of everlasting life
Something I have discovered
Is that His Love excludes all strife
Heaven may be above,
But we carry it within
If we confess that He is Lord
And lay down every sin
So take a leap of faith
Before life passes you by
Or it will slip away from you
In just the blink of an eye
I may be walking blind,
But I'm convinced that I can see
His presence is so thick
His warmth is wrapped all around me
Some say he is invisible
But, friend, this is not true
In fact, he is everywhere
He is all around you
So why not call him Friend?
And why not call Him Father?
Why not call him Darling?
Why should you even bother?
For only then will Love prevail
You see, He is the only way.
So take a hold of Jesus,
And he will take your breath away.
