Fred Hammond's 'Make Time For Love' is a gentle, soulful plea for couples to prioritize their relationship. The song addresses the common problem of busy lives causing partners to drift apart, urging them to communicate, reconnect, and intentionally invest time in each other. It emphasizes that life is short and fragile, so love must be made a priority before it's too late. While the lyrics focus on human love, the underlying message of commitment and effort resonates with Christian values of selflessness and perseverance in relationships.

[Verse 1]
Lately we just pass each other by
We always say we'll get together
But we never find the time
To cherish and enjoy what we have together
[Chorus A]
Make time for love (love, love)
Don't make it hard (whoa)
You see life is way too short
And much too fragile
We both must pitch in and do our part
Make time for love
And you'll see it will get better
Make time for love
Make time for love
[Verse 2]
We don't communicate
This is the key
You say I never really talk to you
And you, you never talk to me
I don't understand
Just how our lives got away
[Chorus B]
Make time for love
Oh for love just make time (whoa)
You see life is way too short
Way too fragile
We both must pitch in and do our part
Make time for love
And you'll see it will get better
Make time for love
Make time for love
[Bridge]
Our relationship is not what is should be
You see we've gotta to turn some things around
And make our love
Priority
[Chorus C]
Make time for love
Oh for love just make time (whoa)
I know it's hard
You see life is way too short
And much too fragile
We both must pitch in and do our part
Make time for love
And you'll see it will get better
Make time for love
Make time...
[Pre-Vamp]
I sure would like to see you smile
What if I called in and changed some things around
I hear you say you feel the same way
Put me in your planner for the whole day
[Vamp]
(Tell me how does that sound)-Make time for love, Make time for love
(Gotta do somethin' 'fore it all breaks down)-Make time for love, Make time for love
(What if I could hold your hand)-Make time for love, Make time for love
(Walk you down the street and lets start again)-Make time for love, Make time for love
(Before it's all too late)-Whoa, whoa, whoa
Make time for love, Make time for love
Make time for love, Make time for love
[Out]
