Where Has Our Love Gone

Phil Keaggy


Look, hey look 
At what happens to a country 
Who turns their backs 
On the homeless and the hungry. 
I have read about when 
The nation was a better friend 
To immigrants and refugees 
Weary of war in search of peace. 
We were there with outstretched arms, 
Knelt with others upon our knees. 
Where has our love gone? 

Look, hey look at what happens to a people 
Who turn their backs on the elderly and feeble. 
I have read about when 
Some people had devised the end 
Of invalids and elderly, 
The lame and those who would disagree, 
People of another race 
Longing for their own country, 
Where did their love go, their love go? 

I cannot believe why 
Some people should believe the lie 
That the unborn child is not a person, 
If it's not human, what is it then? 
And in your courts you denied 
That these were children sentenced to die. 

Where has your love gone 
Where has your love gone 
Where has your love gone 
Where has your love gone 

Look, hey look at what happens to a country 
Look, hey look at what happens to a country 
Look, hey look at what happens to a country 
Look, hey look at what happens to a country
