lyrics

We thought You wanted temples and blood above our doors
We thought You wanted vengeance and all out holy wars
We thought that You were distant, You were far away
But You are here and You are love

We thought we’d have to prove ourselves to ever feel Your love
We thought that blood and sacrifice would somehow be enough
We thought that You were angry God, You were far away
But You are here and You are love

Thank God, we don’t have to worry
Thank God, we don’t have to pay
All our wrongs are covered in Your glory
Thank God, thank God

We thought that life was hopeless and heaven was the end
We thought Your love could only reach a fraction of our friends
We thought we’d never make it God, we were far away
But You are here and You are love

God, help us love our neighbors, help us be a light
Help us love our husbands and help us serve our wives
Keep us far from evil, keep us far away
'Cause You are here and You are love
