The More I Love, the Less I Be Loved

INTRO

VERSE 1

The more that I love, the less I be loved

Oh, help me Jesus

The more I love, the less I’ll be loved

But I will gladly spend and be spent for You

The more abundantly I love, the less I be loved

Apostle Paul said it

He said the more that I love, yeah

The less I be loved

Oh, help me Jesus

The more I love, the less I be loved

But I will gladly spend and be spent for You

The more abundantly I love, the less I be loved

VERSE 2

Yeah, yeah

I wanna be loved by someone who is passionate about loving me, yeah

And I wanna be loved by someone who feels something at least, oh

And I wanna be loved by someone who can return my love, oh

And I wanna be loved by someone who is grateful, oh

But the more that I love, yeah

CHORUS

The less I be loved

Oh, help me Jesus

The more I love, the less I be loved

But I will gladly spend and be spent for You

The more abundantly I love, the less I be loved

VERSE 3

Yeah, yeah

I wanna be loved by someone who is eager to see me, yeah

And I wanna be loved by someone who’s excited about me, yeah

And I wanna be loved by someone who talks to me endlessly, yeah

And I wanna be loved by someone who touches me and holds my hand

But the more that I love, oh no, no, no

CHORUS

The less I be loved

Oh, help me Jesus

The more I love, the less I be loved

But I will gladly spend and be spent for You

The more abundantly I love, the less I be loved

VERSE 4

Yeah, yeah

I wanna be loved by someone who welcomes me happily, yeah

And I wanna be loved by someone who is not tired of me, no, no, no, no, no

And I wanna be loved by someone who appreciates all my efforts at loving her

And I wanna be loved by someone who is thankful, yeah, yeah

But the more that I love, the less I be loved

Oh, help me Jesus

The more I love, the less I be loved

But I will gladly spend and be spent for You

VERSE 5

The more abundantly I love, the less I be loved

Oh, oh, is that Your experience

Oh brothers, that’s Your experience too

Oh no, oh yeah, yeah

Oh God, change the story, the story of my life

Oh, this is the story of my life

Meeting people and loving them, giving them all I have and loving them every day

And watching them loving others, I am getting nothing in return

The more that I love, the less I be loved

Help me Lord, help me Lord

The more I love, the less I be loved
