Not Just What You Say Lyrics - Fred Hammond

Not just what you say 

Not just what you say 

Not just what you say 

Not just what you say 

Then we can act like we know what love is 

When you say how are you doin' do you really wanna know 

And are you concerned yeah 

And if you had the solution 

But it took some of your time or some cash or whatever 

Are you willing 

Not just what you say 

(It's mostly what you do) 

Not a game that you play 

(To keep the winning hand with you) 

Not just wasting time 

(With empty words that don't mean much) 

Not just how you feel 

(When others need your tender touch) 

So can you take out some time 

(To help somebody else in need) 

And when this is done 

(The love of God is truly seen) 

Then above all 

(We need to cover and forgive) 

Then we can act like we know what love is 

Love is compassion that makes you reach way down 

And help your fellow man 

So if there's a need and you can be the one 

Go and help someone 

Not just what you say 

(It's mostly what you do) 

Not a game that you play 

(To keep the winning hand with you) 

Not just wasting time 

(With empty words that don't mean much) 

Not just how you feel 

(When others need your tender touch) 

So can you take out some time 

(To help somebody else in need) 

And when this is done 

(The love of God is truly seen) 

Then above all 

(We need to cover and forgive) 

Then we can act like we know what love is 

Love is all 

(Love is all) 

All in all 

(All in all) 

(Forgiving faults 

(Forgiving faults) 

Great and small 

Patient and 

(Patient and) 

Willing to 

(Willing to) 

Cover me 

(Cover me) 

Cover you 

(Cover you) 

Love is kind 

(Love is kind ) 

Don't you know 

(Don't you know) 

And will not 

(And will not) 

Seek its own 

God is love 

(God is love) 

Forever more 

(Forever more) 

Act like it you know 

(Act like it you know) 

Go handle yours 

Not just what you say 

(It's mostly what you do) 

Not a game that you play 

(To keep the winning hand with you) 

Not just wasting time 

(With empty words that don't mean much) 

Not just how you feel 

(When others need your tender touch) 

So can you take out some time 

(To help somebody else in need) 

And when this is done 

(The love of God is truly seen) 

Then above all 

(We need to cover and forgive) 

Then we can act like we know what love is 

Not just what you say 

(It's mostly what you do) 

Not a game that you play 

(To keep the winning hand with you) 

Not just wasting time 

(With empty words that don't mean much) 

Not just how you feel 

(When others need your tender touch) 

So can you take out some time 

(To help somebody else in need) 

And when this is done 

(Love of God is truly seen) 

Then above all 

(We need to cover and forgive) 

Then we can act like we know what love is 

Love is all
