Some would search the seven seas and cross the great divide



To find the perfect ecstasy to fill the heart and mind

Body and soul we search for meaning before learning just what love is



Some would say a sudden flame, a passion prone to passing

To others just a distant dream never meant for them

So many souls would find their meaning if they first would learn what love is



Chorus:

What is love? To lay your life down to save another

What is love? To give yourself to those who don't deserve

When mercy smoothes the furrowed brow of justice

We will understand what love is



Jesus calmed the stormy seas and crossed the great divide

He's the perfect ecstasy to fill the heart and mind

Body and soul the search is over, we found Jesus, He's what love is



CHORUS (2x)



It took love like this to make us His

Jesus came to show us just what love is



Refrain:

What is love? To lay your life down to save another

What is love? To give yourself to those who don't deserve



Repeat REFRAIN ad lib and fade
