LET IT BE LOVE

Snippet

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your 
heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make 
sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even 
an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little 
luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the 
casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, 
dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; 
it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To 
love is to be vulnerable.” ― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Scripture

Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to 
love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. 
The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall 
not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and 
whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this 
one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”  Love does no 
harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. 
Romans 13:8-10 NIV

I've never seen a soul set free
Through an argument 
I've never seen a hurt get healed
In a protest
But I've seen sinners turned to saints
Because of grace
It's love, love that lights the w
Love that lights the way
Let it be a heart wide open
Bigger than the words we've spoken
Let it be a heart for the broken
If we're gonna light, light
Light the way
Let it be love, let it be love, yeah
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love, yeah
Let it be love, let it be love, yeah 
It's love that lights the way
It's not about the stand we take
But the grace we give
It's not about the name we make
But the life we live
Heard about a King who sat down
Took my place
True love gave His life away
It's love that lights the way
Let it be a heart wide open
Bigger than the words we've spoken
Let it be a heart for the broken
If we're gonna light, light
Light the way
Let it be love, let it be love, yeah
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love, yeah
Let it be love, let it be love, yeah 
It's love that lights the way
Stronger than every fear
Comfort for all the tears
It's where the war is run
And it has overcome
Louder than the loudest shout
Deeper than the deepest doubt
We'll watch the walls fall down
We'll watch the walls fall down
Let it be a heart wide open
Bigger than the words we've spoken
Let it be a heart for the broken
If we're gonna light, light
Light the way
Let it be love, let it be love, yeah
Nothin' but love, nothin' but love, yeah
Let it be love, let it be love, yeah 
It's love that lights the way
It's love that lights the way
Yeah, Love that lights the way

Sentence Prayer
God; 
You are love
Your Son gives man a pattern to follow
Help us today, to do no harm as we keep in step with 
Your Holy Spirit, but healing as we all bask

in your love.  Amen  R.M.
