Are we teaching the truth in love Telling it like it is Are we holding pure motives, Showing that we care Are we teaching the truth in love
A man came to my Jesus Telling all that he had done To fulfill the good commandments He knew every single one But Jesus said there's something That indeed he did lack The savior told the truth He didn't hold the message back
He was teaching the truth in love Telling it like it is While holding pure motives And showing that He cared He was teaching the truth in love
A woman caught in evil and without an alibi The truth, so very obvious, made no attempt to lie With all the foes against her how she felt so all alone Until Jesus asked the people who would throw the first stone
He was teaching the truth in love Telling it like it is While holding pure motives And showing that He cared He was teaching the truth in love, in love, in love, in love
Sometimes it's hard to know exactly how we are to share With our Master's words of confidence, directly, do we dare? Should we water down the message, should we tell them only parts? Will they see Him in our message, will they see Him in our hearts?
CHORUS (2x)
Are we teaching the truth in love Telling it like it is Are we holding pure motives, Showing that we care Are we teaching the truth, Are we teaching the truth, Are we teaching the truth in love, in love, in love
