You didn't have to leave the glory of heaven
But You became a simple man
You didn't have to serve the poor and afflicted
But You touched and healed their brokenness
No greater love has been given
You became the ultimate sacrifice
Created me, the heart of a servant
Let this be my soul's desire

Show me how to love
In the true meaning of the word
Teach me to sacrifice
Expecting nothing in return
I want to give my life away
Becoming more like You each and every day
My words are not enough
Show me how to love

I saw a bruised and battered woman
With her hungry children on the street
Then I heard You ask in that still small voice
"What have you done for the least of these?"
Lord, consume me with a burning fire
That melts away my complacency
Then let me be moved with love and compassion
Then someone will find the way in me
Show me how to love
In the true meaning of the word
Teach me to sacrifice
Expecting nothing in return
I want to give my life away
Becoming more like You each and every day
My words are not enough
Please show me how to love

Open up my eyes that I might really see
More and more and more of You and less of me
By loving the unlovable and touching the untouchable
Let my actions speak louder than my words

Show me how to love
In the true meaning of the word
Teach me to sacrifice
Expecting nothing in return
I want to give my life away
Becoming more like You each and every day
My words are not enough
Please show me how to love

My words are not enough
Please show me how to love
