[Verse 1]
Samson tore the building down
Moses climbed to higher ground
And when it comes to me and you
There ain't nothing I wouldn't do
[Chorus]
Nothing in the world is stronger
Nothing in the world is stronger
Nothing in the world is stronger
Than my love for you
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Than my love for you
[Verse 2]
Don't need a house on a hill
Don't need my face on a dollar bill
Just need to be clear
So that everyone can hear
[Chorus]
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Than my love for you
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in this world is stronger (World is stronger)
Than my love for you (Love for you)
[Bridge]
The Good Lord giveth and the Good Lord taketh away
Seems unfair, but not for me to say

[Chorus]
Nothing in the world is stronger
Nothing in the world is stronger
Nothing in the world is stronger
Than my love for you
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Nothing in the world is stronger (World is stronger)
Than my love for you (Love for you)
[Outro]
Than my love for you (Love for you)
My love for you (Love for you)
My love, my love (Love for you)
Than my love for you (Love for you)
Than my love for you
Oh, my love for you
Than my love for you
Oh, my love for you (Love for you)
For you
