Foolish Things - Steve Camp

Oh, we learned about love so long ago

It was there in the garden

Push came to shove and we lost our souls

And our hearts began to harden

Now we live in a modern world

Where feelings aren’t essential

And love is a dirty word

And we’ve grown too proud to mention

It hurts me, it hurts you

All of the foolish things that we do

What hurts you, should hurt me

If we’re one body like we claim to be

How we wound each other with the words we say

Striving for position

Smash somebody’s world, just walk away

In idle conversation

Ah, we live in an empty world

An unholy fabrication

And we say that we love the Lord

As we hate His congregation

It hurts me, it hurts you

All of the foolish things that we do

What hurts you, should hurt me

If we’re one body like we claim to be

How many broken hearts until we see

We got to live together in unity

We got to live in unity

Now we are living in a modern world

Where feelings aren’t essential

And now love is just a dirty word

And we’ve grown too proud to mention

It hurts me, it hurts you

All of the foolish things that we do

What hurts you, should hurt me

If we’re one body like we claim to be

It hurts me, it hurts you

All of the foolish things that we, that we do

What hurts you, it’s gotta hurt me

If we’re one body…

It hurts me, it hurts you

What hurts you, should hurt me

If we are living in unity

It hurts me, it hurts you

So many foolish things

All the fooling things that we do

What hurts you, should hurt me

If we’re one body like we claim to be

Like Jesus wants it to be
