Love is Never Wasted

from We Walk in the Garden by John Lucas

/

lyrics

Build a home
Though it seems the world’s all sinking sand these days
Your foundation is the faith
That love endures always

Show forgiveness
When the world’s bitterly unkind
This clothes the naked
And clears the eyes of the blind

Love, love is never wasted
It never stays in the ground

Show mercy to the outlaw
The stranger and the thief
For God came as an outlaw
To share our cup of grief

Love your enemy
And you will raise the dead
Feed the poor
And you’ll taste heaven’s bread

Love, love is never wasted
It never stays in the ground

Show your children
How to love when they are young
A seed will plant a forest
Before your days are done

Trade not your hope
To claim your scrap of earth
For the kingdom is a mystery
Of death and then rebirth
