I first heard this song from our Youth Encounter back in High School. The facilitators taught us this song complete with gestures and actions. And 17 years later, this song still lingers on my head like a song playing non stop on a turn table. Well the song is about unity through love. A very beautiful and rare song which I thought of sharing with you guys. Most of the songs I feature here @ OTWOMD are rare and hard to find so if I were you I will take advantage of this opportunity to listen to these songs.

BRIDGE OF LOVE
Performed by BJ Thomas
As featured in Rock The Faith Podcast Episode 6 – Let’s Volt In

There’s a gap in the world
Only love can fill
And we can bridge that gap
If we have the will
No it won’t be easy
We’ll need help from above
But if everybody pitches in
We can build a bridge of love

Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
From nation to nation
Standing through each generation
Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
Hand in Hand
Side by side
That’s what it’s gonna take

Then one day we’ll cross that
Bridge to a better life
And we’ll leave behind us
That old world of strife
When we reach our new world
Hate we’ll never fear
And I bet if we could see God’s face
He’d be smiling from ear to ear

Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
From nation to nation
Standing through each generation
Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
Hand in Hand
Side by side
That’s what it’s gonna take

Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
From nation to nation
Standing through each generation
Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
Hand in Hand
Side by side
That’s what it’s gonna take

Let’s build a bridge of love
Across the sea of hate
From nation to nation
Standing through each generation
Let’s build a bridge of love
