Genuine Love
by Hey Barnabas!, Eric McAllister

Album: Gather, Pray & Eat

Chorus
You have welcomed us into Your family
Brought by blood into this new community
Teach us love, teach us love, teach us genuine love
So the world may see that you're alive in us
So the world may see that you're alive in us

Verse 1
We are many, we are one,
Joined together in the Son;
You have poured Your love on us
Ever fervent in our prayers,
Ever generous to share;
You have poured Your love on us

Verse 2
Songs of thanks and praise we sing,
To the God of grace and peace;
You have poured Your love on us
We're the church of Jesus Christ,
Through His precious sacrifice;
You have poured Your love on us

Chorus
You have welcomed us into Your family
Brought by blood into this new community
Teach us love, teach us love, teach us genuine love
So the world may see that you're alive in us
So the world may see that you're alive in us

Verse 3
Near the grieving we are found,
With them still when joy rebounds;
As You form Your Son in us
We will gather, pray, and eat,
Showing honor to the weak;
As you form Your Son in us

Chorus
You have welcomed us into Your family
Brought by blood into this new community
Teach us love, teach us love, teach us genuine love
So the world may see that you're alive in us
So the world may see that you're alive in us

Verse 4
Though this world may hate Your name,
We will never be ashamed;
As You form Your Son in us
For the church that You have won,
Evil shall not overcome;
As You form Your Son in us
As You form Your Son in us
You will form Your Son in us

Chorus
You have welcomed us into Your family
Brought by blood into this new community
Teach us love, teach us love, teach us genuine love
So the world may see that you're alive in us

THEM AD LIBS
That you're alive in us today
That's the reason why we pray
To the glory of the Father,
In the name of Christ the Son
In the power of the Spirit
Would You make us truly one
So they'll know we're Your disciples
By the holy love we share
In our weeping and rejoicing
By the burdens that we bear
Teach us love, teach us genuine love
