Rich Mullins - When You Love Lyrics

There are things you can pray in your prayers That you can't sing in your songs It's like the dreams that lovers share When they're safely resting in the promise of a love that lasts Though it leads them on to walk a steeper path And so sometimes you pray and sometimes you sing And when you love you thank the Lord for everything

There's a rest you can find in your work That you can't get out of sleep And there's a healing that may hurt And there's a war that must be waged for peace It don't come ready made And if you wanna be free you must become a slave And so sometimes you work and sometimes you rest But when you love you know it all works out for the best

Oh when you love (When you love) Oh when you love (When you love) Oh when you love (When you love) Oh when you love (When you love) Oh when you love

There are things you can sing in your songs When you've learned them in your prayers And there's a rest that makes you strong For the work that you've been called to share In with the sons of Light And if the Lord should tarry long enough you just might See that the times were good Although the times were hard And when you love you know you've got to thank the Lord

When you love (you gotta thank the Lord) You gotta love the Lord When you love You gotta love the Lord You gotta love the Lord You gotta love the Lord
