2. A LOVE WITH NO ENDING
STORY:
A couple of years ago, I started working as a part time music therapist at a Depression Recovery clinic in Weimar, California. It was raining one day, skies were gray, a chilly bite in the air - when the thought crossed my mind, “I should write the most depressing song in the world. Depressing love songs are hits!”
I started writing the song, thinking about showing love to people in ways that they would receive it - and as the lyrics unfolded, the tune that came out was the complete opposite of my original intent.
Instead, a cheesy 70s game show melody appeared! But I have to say, this is one of my personal favorite songs.
How could I write about God’s love, which is really, THE “Love that has no Ending,” in a somber and depressed way?
So, here it is.

VERSE 1:
There’s a place inside everybody’s soul
Where they try to hide,
So tired of playing the role
Beat down and scared, feeling all alone
Holding on to the fear,
Of a great unknown
Seeking for love, and
Seeking for rest, and
Seeking for hope
CHORUS:
Where do they go?
Who do they run to?
What do you say?
How do you show?
A love that is real
A love with on ending
What do you say?
How do you show?
Something they can understand
Something they can feel
A love with no ending
A love that is real
A love with no ending
A love that is real
VERSE 2:
People look for love,
In many different ways
Through a hug from a friend,
Or some food on a tray
But I know for sure, of a love that can fill
More real than words on a page,
Of His death on a hill
He is Love (He is Love)
He is Peace (He is Peace)
He is Hope (He is Hope)
He is Real (He is Real)
He is a Love with no ending
CHORUS:
Where do they go?
Who do they run to?
What do you say?
How do you show?
A love that is real
A love with no ending
What do you say?
How do you show?
Something they can understand
Something they can feel
A love with no ending
A love that is real
A love with no ending
A love that is real
INTERULUDE
CHORUS:
Where do they go?
Who do they run to?
What do you say?
How do you show?
A love that is real
A love with no ending
What do you say?
How do you show?
Something they can understand
Something they can feel
A love with no ending
A love that is real
A love with no ending
A love that is real
A love with no ending
A love that is real
A love with no ending
A love that is real
