Foolish Things

Oh, we learned about love so long ago
It was there in the garden
Push came to shove and we lost our souls
And our hearts began to harden
Now we live in a modern world
Where feelings aren't essential
And love is a dirty word
And we've grown too proud to mention

It hurts me, it hurts you
All of the foolish things that we do
What hurts you, should hurt me
If we're one body like we claim to be

How we wound each other with the words we say
Striving for position
Smash somebody's world, just walk away
In idle conversation
Ah, we live in an empty world
An unholy fabrication
And we say that we love the Lord
As we hate His congregation

It hurts me, it hurts you
All of the foolish things that we do
What hurts you, should hurt me
If we're one body like we claim to be

How many broken hearts until we see
We got to live together in unity
We got to live in unity

Now we are living in a modern world
Where feelings aren't essential
And now love is just a dirty word
And we've grown too proud to mention

It hurts me, it hurts you
All of the foolish things that we do
What hurts you, should hurt me
If we're one body like we claim to be

It hurts me, it hurts you
All of the foolish things that we, that we do
What hurts you, it's gotta hurt me
If we're one body...

It hurts me, it hurts you
What hurts you, should hurt me
If we are living in unity

It hurts me, it hurts you
So many foolish things
All the fooling things that we do
What hurts you, should hurt me
If we're one body like we claim to be
Like Jesus wants it to be
