She works in a café for minimum wage

It’s not her dream job but the bills get paid

Just to see her children smile is payment enough

Came slipping in the window nobody would know 

                                                 G7 
He’s been out in the fast lane running out of control

But daddy caught him in the hall way now it’s time to get tough

They had lessons they had to teach

We’ve all got children we’ve got to reach 

           F        G7            C               F 
Love ain’t easy you know it takes sweat tears and love

Don’t do it cause you have to do it for the love

You know that true love is bigger than life

It can lift you up it can cut like a knife

Just think about Calvary and the carpenter’s son 

F                       C     G7                C 
He didn’t do it for the glory He did it for the love 


           F       G7        C 
He had the lessons He had to teach 
  
             F        G7          Am 
He still has children He wants to reach

Love wasn’t easy you know it took sweat tears and love
