Brian Doerksen, Carly Reirson - Say It Well lyrics

Love, such an easy word to say
Such a hard word to live
I want my life and words to say it well
Love, such a good and lovely thought
Yet so tough to act upon
I want the things I do to say it well

When You look at me will You see evidence
Of faithful caring love
Of kindness between friends

Love, such a pretty word to pen
Yet upon the page so plain
I want the words I write to be divine
Love, sometimes the giving flows with joy
Sometimes receiving stops me cold
I want the give and get to be aligned

When You look at me will You see evidence
Of faithful caring love
Of kindness between friends
When You look at us will You see evidence
Of faithful caring love
Of kindness between friends

I want to say it like a
Poet whose words awaken wonder
I want to say it like an artist
Who helps us feel and see
I want to say it like a
Leader who envisions peace and justice
I want to say it like my Saviour
As I kneel to wash Your feet
I want to say it like a father
Who provides for all his children
Like a mother's care and wisdom
Feeds her family i want to say it like a
Servant who labours for Your welfare
And like a husband's words of
Tribute on their golden anniversary!

Love, such an easy word to say
It takes character to live
I want my life and words to say it well
Ooo oo oo, I'll say it well
