Christ in Song ‎#567

567. 'Tis Love That Makes Us Happy

1 'Tis love that makes us happy,
'Tis love that smooths the way;
It helps us "mind," it makes us kind
To others ev'ry day.

Refrain:
God is love; we're his little children.
God is love; we would be like him.
'Tis love that makes us happy,
'Tis love that smooths the way;
It helps us "mind," it makes us kind
To others ev'ry day.

2 This world is full of sorrow,
Of sickness, death, and sin;
With loving heart we'll do our part,
And try some soul to win. [Refrain]

3 And when this life is over,
And we are called above,
Our song shall be, eternally,
Of Jesus and his love. [Refrain]
