Life is great! So sing about it

by Brian A. Wren

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 467.

Verse 1

Life is great! So sing about it, As we can and as we should- Shop and buses, towns and people, Village, farmland, field and wood, Life is great and life is given; Life is lovely, free and good.

Verse 2

Life is great! What ever happens, Snow or sunshine, joy or pain, Hardship, grief or disillusion, Suffering that I can’t explain Life is great if someone loves me, Holds my hand and calls my name.

Verse 3

Love is great! The love of lovers, Whispered words and longing eyes; Love that gazes at the cradle Where a child of loving lies; Love that lasts when youth has faded, Bends with age, but never dies.

Verse 4

God is great! in Christ He loved us, As we should, but never can- Love that suffered, hoped and trusted When disciples turned and ran, Love that broke through death forever. Praise that loving, living Man!
