Love such an easy word to say, such a hard word to live I want my life and words to say it well Love such a good and lovely thought, yet so tough to act upon I want the things I do to say it well When you look at me will you see evidence Of faithful caring love of kind – ness between friends Love such a pretty word to pen, yet upon the page so plain I want the words I write to be divine Love sometimes the giving flows with joy Sometimes receiving stops me cold I want the give and get to be aligned When you look at us will you see evidence Of faithful caring love of kind – ness between friends I want to say it like a poet whose words awaken wonder I want to say it like an artist who helps us feel and see I want to say it like a leader who envisions peace and justice I want to say it like my saviour as I kneel to wash your feet I want to say it like a father who provides for all his children Like a mother’s care and wisdom, feeds her family I want to say it like a servant who labours for your welfare Like a husband’s words of tribute on their golden anniversary Love such an easy word to say, it takes character to live I want my life and words to say it well Oooo I’ll say it well
