[Chorus]
You canât be my enemy
Because Jesus told me to love you
No matter how you try
Youâre gonna be loved by me
Because Jesus told me to love you
[Verse]
The Lamb who is our Shephard too
Has room in His flock for you
Come on now, and take your place
In His meadow-land of grace
Where I know youâll surely find
Confidence and peace of mind
If we just except His love
Heâll never disown us
And eternal life is a bonus
[Chorus]
You canât be my enemy
Because Jesus told me to love you
No matter how you try
Youâre gonna be loved by me
Because Jesus told me to love you
[Verse]
Take that hate away from here
Letâs create a new atmosphere
Where we recognize the fact
That hate can only hold us back
But if we do what Jesus said
Give each other love instead
This would be a better place
For us to raise our children
We just have to do His will
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
I just have to pray for you
Rather than to hold a grudge
I am but the witness
God will be the judge
[Chorus]
You canât be my enemy
Because Jesus told me to love you
I have no choice since I heard His voice
Because Jesus told me to love you (multiple times)
