Life Is Great! So Sing About It

1Life is great! So sing about it,
As we should and as we can.
Shops and buses, towns and people,
Village, farmland, field and wood.

2Life is great! what ever happens,
Snow or sunshine, joy or pain.
Hardship, grief or disillusion,
Suffering that I can't explain

3Love is great! the love of lovers,
Whispered words and longing eyes;
Love that gazes at the cradle
Where a child of loving lies;

4Love is great! the love re-echoing
Boy and girl, or friend with friend;
Love that is bearing the great sorrow,
All the disciples turned and ran.

5God is great! in Christ He loved us,
As we should, but never can
Love that suffered, hoped and trusted
When disciples turned and ran.
