Love Was When

1. Love was when God became a man,
   locked in time and space, without rank or place.
   Love was God born of Jewish kin;
   Just a carpenter with some fishermen.
   Love was when Jesus walked in history.
   Lovingly He brought a new life that's free.
   Love was God nailed to bleed and die,
   to reach and love one such as I.
   
   
2. Love was when God became a man,
   down where I could see. Love that reached to me.
   Love was God dying for my sin;
   And so trapped was I, my whole world caved in.
   Love was when Jesus met me now it's real.
   Lovingly He came; I can feel he's real.
   Love was God; only He would try to reach,
   to love one such as I.
