I Am Love

Michael W. Smith · Healing Rain [2004]

I am not passers by

I am not a white lie

I am not left to die

I am love, I am love

I am not feeling sad

I am not the new fad

I am not quickly mad

I am love, I am love

(Chorus Part 1)

You can try to hide

You can try to run

But You'll never run far enough

This is my flesh, this is my blood

And I am love

(Chorus Part 2)

You can fly up high

You can dig down deep

You can flee to the west

You can flee to the east

But you can't escape what I've done

'Cause I am love

I am not standing by

I am not letting go

I am not leaving you

I am love, I am love

(Repeat entire chorus once, Repeat Pt 1 after repeat)

I am love

My blood fell like rain

I did not bleed in vain

But from my veins

I am love

I Am Love
