Take the Road of Love

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

[Verse 1]

Why build a wall when bridges stand tall

Why carry stones to break what could heal us all

Why cry in the dark and laugh at the light

Chasing hatred instead of embracing what's right

[Chorus]

Take the road of love

Let it lead you home

Hatred’s a fire that leaves you cold

We’re not here to break

We’re not here to fall

We’re here to love

To answer God's call

Take the road of love

Yes, Take the road of love

[Verse 2]

Mocking dreamers won’t bring peace

Pride is just a prison

where love can't exist

Our Hands are meant to hold

Our Arms are meant to save

Instead, they're clenched into fists

Digging our own graves

[Chorus]

Take the road of love

Let it lead you home

Hatred’s a fire that leaves you cold

We’re not here to break

We’re not here to fall

We’re here to love

To answer God's call

Take the road of love

Yes, Take the road of love

This is the lyric to a song I wrote. You can find it online at Amazon, Spotify, and YouTube under Julia O'Hara "Take the Road of Love"
