Slow down for a minute
Take a look at the love He gave
Just hold on for a minute
Look at how we've gone our separate ways
We're building walls of confusion and doubt
Out of pettiness and pride
While all the while the world we're here to love
Just passes right on by

If we could stand together
This world would be a better place
If we could love each other
We'd be living proof of the love He gave
(Of the love He gave)

Slow down, look around you
Is that your brother you see standing there
Just hold on, think about it
How can you say you just don't care
It's up to us, we can change this world
When they see love in me and you
How can we say that we love our God
If we can't love each other, too

If we could stand together
This world would be a better place
If we could love each other
We'd be living proof of the love He gave
We've got to get close enough to our brother's heart
To feel his fear and doubt
You know that's what it's all about
If we could love each other
We'd be living proof, living proof
Living proof of the love He gave

How can we say that we love our God
If we can't love each other, too

If we could stand together
This world would be a better place
If we could love each other
We'd be living proof of the love He gave

We've got to get close enough to our brother's heart
To feel his fear and doubt
You know that's what it's all about
If we could love each other
We'd be living proof, living proof
Living proof of the love He gave

If we could stand together
If we could love each other
This world would be a better place
Ooh, yeah
Slow down for a minute
(For a minute)
Ooh, they look into me and you
We must learn to love each other
Ooh, learn to love each other
Ooh, we've got to love each other
The world is looking for proof
Let give them proof
Let's love one another
If we could love each other
All they need is living proof
Of the love He gave
Oh, how can you say you love God
And not love your brother
Oh, let's learn to love each other
Proof of the love You gave
