Verse 1

Children of God
What have we done
We've taken the truth
And made it a weapon
How easy we forget
What drew and pulled us in

Verse 2

It was not pointed fingers
Or proving me wrong
That called and convicted
Me to come home
But kindness brought repentance
Freedom and forgiveness
Oh children

Chorus

If we're gonna be known for something
Let it be love love love
Speaking the truth means nothing
Without love love love
'Cause no one's gonna hear us
If we keep throwing stones
If we're gonna be
Known for something
Let it be love

Verse 3

Children of God
We've painted our signs
Saying come as you are
But is that what they find
Ready arms of welcome
Steady hands to help them

Verse 4

Rebuild what's been broken
The bridges that burned
For hearts only open
With the key trust has earned
How else will they know Him
Who else is gonna show them
Oh children

Chorus

If we're gonna be known for something
Let it be love love love
Speaking the truth means nothing
Without love love love
'Cause no one's gonna hear us
If we keep throwing stones
If we're gonna be
Known for something
Let it be love

Bridge 1

Patient and kind
Keeps no record of wrongs
Gives more than it takes
No matter the cost

Bridge 2

It is not proud
Selfish or rude
Lays down its life
For its enemies too

Bridge 3

It hurts and it cries
Bleeds and it dies
Hopes and trusts
Though it is crushed
Believes sustains
Endures the pain
Love always prevails

Bridge 4

Oh it sings with songs of victory
Plants gardens where deserts used to be
Wastelands alive with living streams
Love never fails

Chorus

If we're gonna be known for something
Let it be love love love
Speaking the truth means nothing
Without love love love
'Cause no one's gonna hear us
If we keep throwing stones
If we're gonna be
Known for something
Let it be love
