we will stop and help when someone's in a bind

if we see a need, we will try to make the time

and while other think of reasons not to love

we love because he first loved us



we are quick to say "i'm sorry" when we're wrong

and instead of holding grudges, we move on

for we know the father's grace will be enough

we love because he first loved us



teach us to love when we don't get it right

so when the world looks at us

they will see your light

teach to love and to lay down our lives

and we'll praise our father in heaven



we don't seek revenge, instead we the peace

when life strikes a blow, we turn the other cheek.

we will persevere when other will give up

we love because he fist loved us



yes they will praise our father in heaven

we won't brag, we won't boast

but if they want to know

we will point ot the one who has loved us the most



well, is not that we don't ever disagree

still when times get rough you will find us on our knees

you might say we're all just diamonds in the rough

but we love because he first loved us

you might say we're all just diamonds in the rough

but we love, yes that what his love does,

we love because he first loved us
