This is how we know what love is
Jesus Christ laid down His life for us
And we ought to lay down our own lives
Lay down our own lives for our brothers
We love, we love, we love
Because He first loved us
And this is love that we would obey
His commands are not a burden
For everyone born of God has overcome
He has overcome this world of trouble
We love, we love, we love
Because He first loved us
We love
We love, we love, we love
Because He first loved us
And it's why
We love, we love, we love
Because He first loved us
