Verse 1 We started with a love so bright, Two hearts beneath the morning light, We dreamed of home, we dreamed of days, And walked together in Your grace. But life grew busy, dreams grew wide, And little words were left unsaid; One gave his love through gifts and work, While one just longed for time instead. Pre-Chorus We loved, but we did not understand, We held our hearts in silent hands. Lord, teach us how to truly see The love our hearts were meant to be. Chorus Teach us to love like Jesus loves, To listen, serve, forgive, and trust; Not only say, “I love you still,” But show that love through daily will. When hearts speak words we cannot hear, Give us the grace to draw near. Make our love a faithful song— In Christ, two hearts can learn to belong. Verse 2 There were the words that never came, The touch that once had called my name, The precious hours we let slip by, The lonely questions asking why. There were the gifts, the meals, the care, The quiet ways of being there; But love can fade from what we know When what we give is not what shows. Pre-Chorus We loved, but we did not understand, And silence built a wall between our hands. Lord, teach us how to truly see The love our hearts were meant to be. Chorus Teach us to love like Jesus loves, To listen, serve, forgive, and trust; Not only say, “I love you still,” But show that love through daily will. When hearts speak words we cannot hear, Give us the grace to draw near. Make our love a faithful song— In Christ, two hearts can learn to belong. Bridge Love is patient, love is kind, Love does not keep a record of wrongs. Teach us, Lord, to bear and hope, To seek the lost and mend what’s broken. Where there is pride, give us humility; Where there is pain, give us mercy. And where our words have failed to speak, Let Christ’s own love become our speech. Final Chorus Teach us to love like Jesus loves, To lay our selfish desires down; To listen with a faithful heart, And seek Your wisdom from the start. When hearts speak words we cannot hear, Give us the grace to draw near. Make our homes reflect Your love, Your covenant grace from heaven above. Outro Five languages, but love is one— To give ourselves as Christ has done. So teach our hearts, Lord, day by day, To love, to listen, and to stay.
