"THE SEARCH FOR LOVE"

Verse 1
The search for love goes on forever.
The heart is so hungry to find another.

Chorus 1
My life is spent like a drop of rain,
Falling and falling, rising up again,
And love, only love will remain!

Verse 2
Oh Jesus, please tell me
The reason, for living,
And how can I enter
Your Kingdom of Heaven?

Chorus 2
“You must be born again, My friend,
To find the life which lives within
Where love, only love will reign!

Chorus 3
For God [for God] so loved [so loved]
The world [the world, He gave,] He gave
His only [His only Son] Son,
That He [that He might save] might save
A world full of greed and hate.”

Chorus 4
My life is spent like a drop of rain, [ooh, drop of rain,]
Falling and falling, rising up again,
And love, only love will remain!

Ending
Love, oh, love! The whole world is searching for love!
Love! If you’ll only receive it!
Love, oh, love! It can make life worth living!
--Love! That’s why we are here, for love!
If you’ll only receive it!
Love, oh, love! It can make life worth living!
[Love, love!]
[Love, love!]
