I Did It All For Love


(Sung)

As the truth of my life stares me in the eyes

What can I do but submit and not despise

You may not understand the tears in me

But maybe here is something you can relate to set you free. . .

I did it all for love

That much I say is true

A sweet romantic dance

Leading into you

I did it all for love

Even when it hurt

I did it all for love

I did it all for you

Tossed and turned and not comforted

I hear you're heart burn and I smile and say

I did it all for love

To understand my Lord

To walk in His sufferings

To be His adored

I did it all for love

That much I say is true

I did it all for love

I did it all for you

-------------------------

(Rapped)

Surrounded by a cloud of witnesses with no smoke around

I look up and talk to Ezra unbound

I said Ezra what can I learn from you

He said you can learn to be a prophet and an intercessor too

But my friend they will stone you and call you insane

They will say you have a Christ complex and cast you away

But this much I can Love Wrap to you

If you drink to the dregs He will rapture you

So I smiled not knowing what I was to do

And I drank from my Master's cup and then I was gone too

You said it was out of pride, but it won't be very long

Before you feel my love through the arms of this song

I did it cuz I could not understand why Jesus did not just come and heal this land

But I've learned to not rely on what I see as I know when it is The Holy Ghost speaking in me

I did it before and I'd do it again

Though I died I'd do it all again just to be close to Him

Now I am the weakest that I have ever been

As I have to constantly rely completely on Him

Patience is required my love till we truly meet

I know I will be ready my best friend to gaze into your eyes and weep upon your feet

As I did it all for you my love, my future wife, the Jesus inside you, your my wife for life

So don't despise the loving the loving look in my eyes

And please say yes, to this humble request of matrimony cuz you are the very best

As I did it all for love, I did it all for you

THE PUERTO-RICAN JESUS

Just read I am an open book (lol). Brevity is the soul of wit.
