How Love Comes (Gloria) Songtext
von Nichole Nordeman

Only love would choose and flesh and bone
Choose the unknown
To be one of us

Only love would lose without gain
Bruise without blame
To be one of us

Oh, to limp, to cry, to walk beside us in the struggle
Oh, to break, to mend, to stoop to bend where we are huddled

(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love comes
(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love comes
(Glo-o-ria-a)
This is how love wins
Keep coming still

Only love would rise and fall
Rulers and walls
Could not hold us


In the arms of
A refugee girl
Her brown baby′s curl
Just to show us

To seek, to find, to shine a light into the corner
To name, to bless, and carry us across the border

(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love comes
(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love comes
(Glo-o-ria-a)
This is how love wins
Keep coming still
Oh-o-o-o-ohh

Ever patient, ever kind
Love will not be undermined
Heal the brokenhearted
Love will finish what it started
Love will not be used a cord
Or dare to inflict one more bruise
Love is never self-inflated
Love will not be elevated

Love is small and love is naked


(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love co-omes
(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love co-omes
(Glo-o-ria-a)
This is how love wins
Keep coming still
(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love comes
(Glo-o-ria)
This is how love co-o-omes
(Glo-o-ria-a)
This is how love wins
Keep coming still
Keep coming
Keep coming still
