We sang a song in church on Sunday a week ago that was new to me. It really expresses a lot of the fears and doubts and frustrations I’ve been muddled with over the past God-knows-how-many months. I’d like to share it.
Love Can Change the World
by Aaron Niequist
Bridges are more beautiful than bombs are
Bridges are more beautiful than bombs.
Listening is louder than a lecture
Listening is louder than a shout
But Love – Love can change the world.
Oh do we still believe that
Love – Love can change the world.
Oh do we still believe in
Love – Love
God is Love, our God is Love and
Love can change the world.
An open hand is stronger than a fist is
An open hand is stronger than a fist
Wonder is more valuable than Wall Street
Wonder is more valuable than gold.
May we never stop this dreaming
Of a better world
May we never stop believing
In the impossible.
