Dennis Jernigan

G7sus             C-C2/E                        F
         Father if we       were all to be honest
                           Am7-C2/E          F6       F-G
What would our greatest       need consist of?
F/G               C-C2/E                         F
Wouldn't we say,        if we were all honest
                   Am7       G         F/G        Csus-C
Simply our greatest need is to     be loved?
F/G          C                        Dm7-C/E     F2                  Gsus-G
>From the strong and stable man to the single minded woman
G         Am                Em7              F2-G-C2/E
To the man not even sure he is a man
             F                     C2/E               F       Dm7
To the lonely hurting children to the old, abandoned soul
              C/G-F/G                     Csus-C
We need love          to make us whole.

F2/G     C-C2/E                 F                 C       
To      be loved     is like a harbor in a storm
            G/B              Am7                G          G/B          C
To be anchored so securely at the heart you can't be torn
C2/E         F                         Gsus       G/F   C2/E
To      be loved is just what every heart would give 
                          F
     their life to be
               C/G        C/E               F-C2/E
Held just once by One who would not leave
          F-F/G                    Csus-C
To be loved     is what we need

G7sus               C-C2/E                     F
           Only one love       is totally true love
                   Am7-C2/E                     F6       F-G
Bearing my sin,            bearing my pain!
F/G         C-C2/E                         F
Only one love       could ever be true love
                   Am7       G            F/G    Csus-C
Others will fail, but this love will remain!
F/G               C                    Dm7-C/E     
Through the fiery trials of life,
                       F2             Gsus-G
Through the endless days of prison,
G                    Am             Em7               F2-G-C2/E
Through the darkness of rejection's blinding rain,
                     F                        C2/E               F  Dm7
Through the days we hurt so badly and we seem to cry in vain
              C/G-F/G           Csus-C
Jesus' love will still remain!
