When You Love 
words and music by Rich Mullins

Intro: E-C#m-A-B (four times)

 E               C#m                     A
There are some things you pray in your prayers
 B                      E
You can't sing in your songs
 E         C#m               A
Like the dreams that lovers share
               B              A-E
When they're resting in the promise
      A         B
Of a love that lasts
            A        E
Though it leads them on
E           A      B
To walk a steeper path
                  A-E
So sometimes you pray
        A          B
And sometimes you sing
              A
And when you love
               B            E
You thank the Lord for everything


Chorus

 E-C#m         A                           B
Yeah when you love, you are gonna to find peace
 E-C#m         A                       B
Yeah when you love, you'll have a new song to sing
 E-C#m         A                         B
Yeah when you love, you are gonna break free
           A                             B
From the world and your heart will rise above(go to bridge here after singing                    
 A        E        E-C#m-A-B (twice)           chorus second time) 
When you love

      E       C#m               A
And there's a rest you find in work
     B                E
You can't get out of sleep
  E         C#M             A
There's a healing that may hurt
 B                          A          E
There's a war that must be waged for peace
                A    B
It don't come ready made
            A        E
And if you wanna be free
 E         A       B
You must become a slave

      A           E
So sometimes you work
                    A
And sometimes your rest
                                            E
And when you love it all works out for the best


Chorus

A
So times will always be good
           C#m      F#m
Even when times get hard
              A                    B             C-D-E-C-D
And when you love you get to thank the Lord


Chorus (twice)

E-C#m-A-B   E-C#m-A-B   E-C#m-A-B   E-C#m-D   

        A  
And it goes on and on and on and on and on and on...

E-C#m-A-B (four times)

E              C#m    A      B
It goes on and on and on and on and on ...
E              C#m    A      B
It goes on and on and on and on and on ...... (repeat a few times, then fade)
