There was a man, they said he was a prophet;
He must have been someone, look at what he's done.
He's brought us the love of God - no one could stop it -
And given us hope that all may yet be one.
Sing, sing, sing it out loud,
As strong as your voice will allow,
Love, love, love is the word -
Jesus is here and now!
Some people know the truth, but still they leave it,
Preferring to wait till God knocks on their door.
Some people say he's dead, but don't believe it;
He's just as alive as he ever was before.
Sing, sing ...
We've all got our faults, of course, or we'd not be human;
The eyes of our hearts are blind, our souls are lame.
But Jesus forgives us all, so that as new men,
We can forgive our enemies the same.
Sing, sing ...
The people of God have long been separated;
Division and war, it seems, will never end.
But the power of love should not be under-rated,
And Jesus can make every enemy a friend.
Sing, sing ...
A world full of love and peace must start from somewhere,
But who's gonna start, and where do we begin?
Well, Jesus has shown the way and we must follow,
So join hands and love - we cannot fail to win.
Sing, sing, sing it out loud,
As strong as your voice will allow,
Love, love, love is the word -
Jesus is here and now! (repeat twice)
Jesus is here and now!
