I've
heard the voices of liars...
And I've heard the voices of truth-tellers...
In truth, there is little difference amongst the two!
The one speaks with words laced in deceit
The other in words which are true -
But what's it matter
With out love...what good will it do
If every word is true, without love
What good will it do...
Not asking you too,
Compromise your view
Not asking you too,
Accept what I do...
We can disagree,
We can see differently,
We can still believe,
And we can still respect...
One another in love
Otherwise, it matters not if our words are true
Cause without love, what good will it do
Love is more...
More than wanting
Even more, than just saving a soul
Do you really think a soul will come
When your view is your righteousness
And when your love is emptiness
What do you expect?
Did you expect them to stand?
When you showed them their sin.
Did you expect them to sit and listen
Did you expect to reach them...
While in the midst of your own pride?
When your view is your righteousness...
And when your love is emptiness...
What did you expect?
Even God would have walked away.
Where was the kindness in your words?
Where was the patience...
Did you suffer long?
Or were you just seeking a quickie,
A shallow "yes" and "amen"!
Did you expect them to stand?
When you showed them their sin.
Did you expect them to sit and listen
Did you expect to reach them...
While in the midst of your own pride?
When your view is your righteousness...
And when your love is emptiness...
What did you expect?
Were you shocked when they saw right thru you?
Or did you ignore that like you always do?
Bro, filthy rags is your righteousness
And when your love is full of emptiness
What did you expect?
God to be pleased!
Were you the light bearer of Salvation?
Were you the reflection of the love of Christ?
Or were you the prideful condemnation of the law
I've heard the voices of liars...
And I've heard the voices of truth-tellers...
In truth, there is little difference amongst the two!
The one speaks with words laced in deceit
The other in words which are true -
But what's it matter
With out love...what good will it do
If every word is true, without love
What good will it do...
