I've got this friend, she loves and laughs with her children
She's got a way of taking each day gently by the hand
And I know someday they will grow to follow Jesus because
They've been touched by his words in a way they understand

You know the truth breaks through in love
Faith shows herself by what she does
Yeah, the truth breaks through in love
And the changes come when love shows up
Yeah, the change will come when love shows up

I know some folks, their love, it runs so deep and wide
No shred of pretense in the way they live their lives
So they draw close, all those broken, lonely souls
The walls begin to fall when the grace begins to flow

Yeah, they know the truth breaks through in love
Faith shows herself by what she does
Yeah, the truth breaks through in love
And the changes come when love shows up
Yeah, the change will come when love shows up

I like to sing and talk about so many things
But I'm just making noise if I forget this one thing I know

The truth breaks through in love
Faith shows herself by what she does
Yeah, the truth breaks through in love
And the changes come when love shows up
Yeah, the change will come when love shows up
Well, the change will come when love shows up

I know the truth breaks through in love
I know the truth breaks through in love
