Kind friends all gathered 'round
There's something I would say
That what brings us together here
Has blessed us all today.
Love has made a circle that holds us all inside
Where strangers are as family, and loneliness can't hide
You must give yourself to love, if love is what you're after
Open up your hearts to the tears and laughter
And give yourself to love, give yourself to love
I've walked these mountains in the rain
I've learned to love the wind
I've been up before the sunrise
To watch the day begin
And I always knew I'd find you
Though I never did know how
But like sunshine on a cloudy day
You stand before me now
You must give yourself to love, if love is what you're after;
Open up your hearts to tears and laughter,
And give yourself to love, give yourself to love.
Love is born in fire
It's planted like a seed
Love can't give you everything
But it gives you what you need
And love comes when you're ready
Love comes when you're afraid
It'll be your greatest teacher
And the best friend you have made
So give yourself to love, if love is what you're after
Open up your hearts to tears and laughter
And give yourself to love, give yourself to love
Give yourself to love
Give yourself to love.
