Love was when God became a man,
locked in time and space,
without rank or place.
Love was God born of Jewish kin;
Just a carpenter with some fishermen.

Love was when Jesus walked in history.
Lovingly He brought a new life that's free.
Love was God nailed to bleed and die,
to reach and love one such as I.

(Piano Intermission)

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 met me now it's real.
Lovingly He came; I can feel He’s real.
Love was God; only He would try to reach,
to love one such as I.

To love one such as I.
