There is a burden we've been carrying for so long Carried it through days and nights and years And many, many tears Maybe it'll be over now There are still some things That will never be explained Some things we will never know Things we will never understand Things that could drive a soul insane Love Sometimes it seems so absurd No matter what your feelings say They cannot always have their way Let love have the last word Love Even when your vision's blurred Though you may feel like giving in To the rage that is within Let love have the last word We keep on praying for strength To keep going through the hardest days Pray for courage for the fight For discernment in the night Pray for wisdom on our way Pray for peace and freedom To let it go and give it up Faith to leave it His hands Not forget that God is God And to remember we are not Love At times it seems so absurd No matter what your feelings say And though they're rising up again Let love have the last word Love When it feels like justice isn't heard Though you may feel the spite of sin We will not let evil win Let love have the last word Cause you see, with love, love, love We don't always get what we deserve Although we may not understand We will leave it in God's hands Let love have the last word We believe in love, love, love, love Love that is not of this world No matter what your feelings say They cannot always have their way Let love have the last word No matter what your feelings say They cannot always have their way Let love have the last word
