Love was when God became a man
A A7 D A7
Locked in time and space, without rank or place

Love was God born of Jewish kin
A A7 D D7
Just a carpenter with some fishermen
G Em F#m B7
Love was when Jesus walked in history
Em A7 F#m Bm7 A7
Lovingly He brought a new life that’s free
D E
Love was God nailed to bleed and die
A Em7 A A7 D
To reach and love one such as I.
Love was when God became a man
Down where I could see
love that reached to me
Love was God dying for my sin
And so trapped was I, my whole world caved in
Love was when Jesus rose to walk with me
Lovingly He brought a new life that’s free
Love was God only He would try
To reach and love one such as I.
