properly.
He sat down beside them, those who did beg and who did steal
And he stood right up in their defense
And love for his brother is what he did feel
Though to those around him, he made no sense
How can you love those who are unclean?
How can you love those who are mean?
Did you listen when he said, "Cast not that stone"
Did you listen when he said, "Love all as you love your own"

What it all comes down to is in the truth he told
Not in whether your soul can be bought or sold
What it all comes down to is in The Spirit Of The Dove
What it all comes down to is love

Can you love like that with a heart so true
Can you give to the world what he gave to you
A love that comes from the heart and soul and mind
A love that touches all mankind

From our living rooms we watch them, as the reporters tell
From our living rooms we sit and cast our stones
And we watch in wonder as the stories swell
And with little truth to go on we judge and moan
We are no better than our enemies if we only love our brother
We must look for a way to love and understand each other
Can we remember when he said, "Cast not that stone"
Can we remember when he said, "Love all as you love your own"

What it all comes down to is in the truth he told
Not in whether your soul can be bought or sold
What it all comes down to is in The Spirit Of The Dove
What it all comes down to is love

Can you love like that with a heart so true
Can you give to the world what I'm giving to you
A love that comes from the heart and soul and mind
A love that touches all mankind
And the animals
And the Earth
And the universe
Can you love like that?
