[Verse 1] It's not a flag on a field It's not a sign in my yard Not a cause that I joined, not a phrase on a coin It's the change in my heart
[Pre-Chorus 1] Mercy and grace and compassion They're only words without action
[Chorus] I need hands that are open Reaching out for broken hearts Cause that's the only way this world Would ever know who You are Love is the evidence Love is the evidence
[Verse 2] Might be the pain that you share Might be the time that you spend Or the war you don't fight, backing down from your pride After all, in the end
[Pre-Chorus 1]
[Chorus]
[Bridge] My life wasn't changed by an argument It never would've been enough My life was changed by the evidence of love
[Pre-Chorus] Your hands, they were open Reaching out to my broken heart
[Chorus] I need hands that are open Reaching out for broken hearts Cause that's the only way this world Would ever know who You are Love is the evidence Love is the evidence
