Love Over Hate

(words by John Oldham and Pat Mayberry)

Music by Pat Mayberry
Tune Name: LOVE OVER HATE

Lyrics as Poetry

Love over hate, our sacred song.
Sing in our hearts our voices strong.
All of the earth, each place, faith,
each one belongs.

REFRAIN:
You of my heart, You of my soul,
You are the Love that makes us whole.
You of my heart, You of my soul,
You are the Love that makes us whole.

Love over fear, our common dream.
Justice that flows, a mighty stream.
Kindness and mercy calling,
for you and for me.

Refrain

Love over lies, our promise true.
Healing and hope held high anew.
Strengthen our lives with courage
to carry us through.

Refrain
