Love One Another
Michael W. Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With a prophet from the land of wise
In a crowd of people from the land of troubled hearts
I said we've come here for answers
A solution to our world's demise
He said the journey would be long
But here's where you start
Love one another
Work it in to work it out
There could never be enough
Love one another
Love one another
Cause you know without a doubt
You can change your world with love
It was a simple conclusion
But I thought that it was rather profound
Just a fundamental law that we should all live by
I took it in to tomorrow
Yea, I walked the earth but I never found
Any corner of the world
Where this did not apply
Love one another
Love one another
Work it in to work it out
There could never be enough
Love one another
Love one another
Cause you know without a doubt
You can change your world with love
And looking out I saw no method to the madness there
Like in a vision from the Isle of Patmos, I was scared
It was a revelation
Love is getting rare
The people of the land united
And in my dream we all agreed
That we should start again
And this would be our creed
Love one another
Love one another
Work it in to work it out
There could never be enough
Love one another
Love one another
Cause you know without a doubt
You can change your world with love

I had a dream that I was speaking
I had a vision where I shared my thoughts
With a prophet from the land of wise
I talked with a wise prophet
In a crowd of people from the land of troubled hearts
Many people who had difficult hearts were present
I said we’ve come here for answers
I shared that we’re looking for solutions
A solution to our world's demise
We’re searching for ways to fix the world
He said the journey would be long
He explained that the path ahead was a lengthy one
But here's where you start
But we could begin here
Love one another
Show kindness to everyone around you
Love one another
Everybody deserves love and care
Work it in to work it out
Love can help us solve our problems
There could never be enough
We should never stop loving
Love one another
Love everyone
Love one another
Treat every person with care
Cause you know without a doubt
Because we all know
You can change your world with love
Love has the power to change the world
It was a simple conclusion
This idea was straightforward
But I thought that it was rather profound
Though simple, I believed it to be significant
Just a fundamental law that we should all live by
A basic rule that everyone should follow
I took it in to tomorrow
I carried the message into the future
Yea, I walked the earth but I never found
During my travels, I never discovered
Any corner of the world
Any place
Where this did not apply
Where this rule didn’t hold true
And looking out I saw no method to the madness there
Studying the world, I saw that it had no sense
Like in a vision from the Isle of Patmos, I was scared
My experience felt like a scary revelation from Patmos Island
It was a revelation
It was an eye-opening experience
Love is getting rare
Kindness and care are becoming less common
The people of the land united
The individuals joined together
And in my dream we all agreed
In my vision, we all made a pact
That we should start again
We decided to begin anew
And this would be our creed
Our guiding principle would be to love one another
