Lyrics

Weapons of destruction
Do nothing against our
Words of loving

Friends I’ve seen the worst and best
Humanity can do
If I leave it up to you
I know you’ll come through

As the casualties rise
Weapons of destruction
Do nothing against
Our words of loving

Our words of loving
Up and to the sky
Write our names
So they see when they fly by

As the casualties rise
A fire grows inside
Weapons of destruction
Do nothing against
Our words of loving

Friends I’ve seen the end of life
By human hand
How can we just stand by
While the grace of god falls from the sky

Weapons of destruction
Do nothing against our
Words of loving

Our words of loving
Up and to the sky
Write our names
So they see when they fly by

As the casualties rise
A fire grows inside
Weapons of destruction
Do nothing against
Our words of loving
My words of loving
My words of loving
My words of loving
My words of loving

My words of loving
My words of loving
My words of loving

Up and to the sky
Write our names
So they see when they fly by


As the casualties rise
A fire grows inside
Weapons of destruction
Do nothing against
Our words of loving

About This Song

Collective declaration from witnessed experience that words of love overcome weapons of destruction, addressed to friends and humanity with prophetic urgency.

What is the song “Words of Loving” by Chad Lewine about?

A song inspired by the 2013 Israel/Gaza conflict. It was the first time I could empathize viscerally with war and this is what came of that feeling.
