Story Behind The Song
1 Cor 13:7 kind of love - I wanted to write a song about what love is...how the bible defines it.
Song Description
This song is an urban contemporary gospel song about the God kind of love that we as Christians are supposed to display - and what it looks like. Based on the scripture ICorinthians 13:7; Dawkins was the producer and he really brought the song to life, Joi Marshall sang along with myself, but she brought it home with her amazing vocal prowess...Dawkins and Joi's vocals are truly anointed on this song!

Lyrics
Charity
V1
Thought I knew what it was all about
Thought I had it all figured out
But what I thought was loving
was really just me wanting
to cuddle, satisfy my lust
lacking trust in you and us
1Corinthians 7, chapter 13
had a lesson for me, for me
Bsec
That's when I knew something was wrong
Never knew love true, til the day that I met you
Cause love never lasted too long
And what I thought was loving
Was really just me lusting
Hook
Beareth all things
Believeth all things
Hopeth All things
Endureth All things
Knoweth all things
Abideth in me
God's love is made up of all of these things
V2
Here's what I learned
From His Holy Word
Same chapter different verse
Love's never puffed up
To break it down to the rest of us
It's never rude
In a foul mood
Trying to dis with an attitude
It's patient, caring, sharing and forgiving
Bsec
Now I know what love really means
God is love so we must know in love we can trust
True love is what my Jesus brings
Taste and see charity and live life abundantly

Can't You hear the savior calling
He's at the door ...He's knocking ...He loves you
You need Him - Receive Him
Can't You hear HIM calling
He's at the door ...He's knocking ...DON'T you know
You need Him - Receive Him
