Third Day's 'Love Song' is a worship ballad that expresses Christ's sacrificial love for humanity. The lyrics contrast human efforts to prove love—climbing mountains or swimming oceans—with Jesus's ultimate act of love: walking to Calvary and dying on the cross. The song emphasizes that while human promises often fail, Christ's love is complete and willing to give everything. It reassures believers of the depth of God's love, which was demonstrated through the crucifixion and resurrection. The message is one of assurance and gratitude for a love that would be repeated for each person.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain
Just to be with the one he loves
How many times has he broken that promise
It has never been done
I've never climbed the highest mountain
But I walked the hill of calvary
Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give anything
I would give my life away
I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
Just to be with the one he loves
All those dreams are an empty emotion
It can never be done
I've never swam the deepest ocean
But I walked upon the raging sea
Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give anything
I would give my life away
I know that you don't understand
The fullness of My love
How I died upon the cross for your sins
And I know that you don't realize
How much that I gave you
But I promise, I would do it all again
Just to be with you, I've done everything
There's no price I did not pay
Just to be with you, I gave everything
Yes, I gave my life away
