Unconditional Lyrics

Is that my neighbor who’s feeling down?

Thought I should just do some good and turn his life around

Offered my hand but saw pain in his eyes

His voice I heard, three simple words, he asked “My brother, why”

“Your empty lies, you use to disapprove

They never speak God’s truth”

Will you take my hand without your judgment or your creed

Will you call me brother without looking down at me

Can you show our Savior’s mercy isn’t optional

Will you show a love that’s truly unconditional?”

I left my neighbor, tears in my eyes

Why would he choose, dare to accuse my always-giving life

Had I not offered my hand in his need

But still he finds, I’ve closed my eyes to those that I should see

And yet his words now start to ring so true

Can I believe anew?

Will you start a life that celebrates the God of love?

Will you put away the fears that you’ve been frightened of?

Can you show our Savior’s call is unmistakable

All He wants is love that’s truly unconditional

Would you stand in the way of what you do not understand

Praise His name with hatred in your hands

He won’t care if you were right

He won’t dwell upon your rules

All He’ll ask is if you’ve shown compassion to the few?

Will you take my hand without your judgment or your creed

Will you call me brother without looking down at me

Can you show our Savior’s mercy isn’t optional

Will you show a love that’s truly unconditional?” (

Start a life that celebrates the God of love

Put away the fears that you’ve been frightened of

Show us that our Savior’s call is unmistakable

All He wants is love that’s truly unconditional

Take my hand without your judgment or your creed

Call me brother without looking down at me

And show our Savior’s mercy isn’t optional

Now you show a love that’s truly unconditional

Now you show a love that’s truly – unconditional
