Weapon
by Joel Hanson

Album: What If It Is

There's only one way, there's only one way
There's only one way to fight it
All this hatred, all this violence
There's only one thing to fight with

Chorus:
And it's love, love is more powerful
More powerful than death
And love, love, it will conquer all
It is the weapon of goodness

If we rise up, if we rise up
Rise up in retribution
It will not give life, it cannot bring life
No this is not the solution

(Chorus)

If we fight evil with more evil
Then evil still lives
But if we absorb the force of anger
And return love, then love wins

We've got to try it, we've got to try it
Try and love those who hate us
It must sound foolish and misguided
But it's the way of Jesus

Oh love, love is the only way
The way the kingdom comes
And love will cost us everything
But death will be undone

(Chorus)

There's only one way, there's only one way
There's only one way to fight it
