Some would sail the seven seas and cross the great divide,
To find the perfect ecstasy to fill the heart and mind,
Body and soul, we search for meaning,
Before learning just what love is

Some would say a sudden flame, a passion prone to passing
To other just a distant dream, never meant for them
So many souls would find their meaning,
If they first would learn what love is

Chorus
What is love?
To lay your life down to save another
What is love?
To give yourself to those who dont deserve
When mercy smoothes the furrowed brow of justice,
We will understand what love is

Jesus calmed the stormy seas and crossed the great divide,
Hes the perfect ecstasy to fill the heart and mind,
Body and soul, the search is over,
We found Jesus, Hes what love is

Repeat Chorus

It took love like this to make us His
Jesus came to show us just what love is

Repeat Chorus
