Love Incarnate

With a prayer, you fed the hungry With a cry, you stilled the storm With a look, you had compassion On the desperate and forlorn With a touch, you healed the leper With a shout, you raised the dead With a word, expelled the demons With a blessing, broke the bread Love incarnate, love divine Captivate this heart of mine 'Til all I do Speaks of you As a sheep before the shearer You were silent in your pain You endured humiliation At the hands of those you'd made And as hell unleashed its fury You were lifted on a tree Crying, "Father God, forgive them Place their punishment on me" Love incarnate, love divine Captivate this heart of mine 'Til all I do Speaks of you I will feed the poor and hungry I will stand up for the truth I will take my cross and follow To the corners of the earth And I ask that you so fill me With your peace, your power, your breath That I never love my life so much To shrink from facing death Love incarnate, love divine Captivate this heart of mine 'Til all I do Speaks of you
