Love Is Needed

Author: W. C. Martin Hymnal: United Praise #106 (1908) First Line: Love is needed, love is needed, just a little more of love Refrain First Line: Love, pure love is needed here below Lyrics: 1 Love is needed, love is needed, just a little more of love, Like the love that brought our Savior from his throne of light above; For this weary world is stricken and it bears a weight of woe; And a little more of heav’nly love is needed here below. Refrain: Love, pure love is needed here below, Love, sweet love would banish much of woe, Love, great love, like Jesus came to show, Such love would make this weary world a blissful heaven here below. 2 Love is needed, love is needed, for there is so much of grief, And the days of joy and sunshine are so very few and brief; And the sorrows are so heavy for the weary world to bear, That a little more of tender love is needed everywhere. [Refrain] 3 Love is needed, love is needed, such a love as will forgive; Such a love as makes it easy for some weary soul to live; Such a love as points to heaven; and a little love is due To the world so sad and weary, oh, my Christian friend, from you. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Love is needed, love is needed]
