the greatest of these

my heart hurts a little tonight
because of what i cant have.
welcome to the place i'll never land.
welcome to the place i'll never learn to stand.

does your heart hurt a little tonight
because of all you can't have?
welcome to the place that you've landed
welcome to the place where you'll never stand.

but i'm calling you
to be brave
i am calling you
to stand up and say
that its love that molds us
and makes us stay
and we're calling you to be awake

does your heart hurt a little
because you're learning to understand
that to welcome you to the place you've landed,
i've got to welcome you with a broken hand?

the greatest of these things is love
and it's for love that i am called to grow
maybe if i travel to the shore
the ocean will take me where i am restored
the greatest of these things is love.
the greatest of these things is love.
