Steven Curtis Chapman Speed Of Love Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She gets up at 6 in the morning and drives to the kitchen
Where the hungry hearts gather
She'll fill your plate and say a kind word
And look you in the eye and make you believe you matter
And all the while the world goes rushing by
But she just smiles and goes on living life

[Chorus]
At the speed... of love
At the speed... of love
She's got a heart that beats at the speed of love
[Verse 2]
She clocks in at the flower shop puts her name tag on
That says "Hello, I'm Judy"
Band-Aids on both her thumbs but she says the thorns
Are part of the roses beauty
She stops to pray with Francine who just lost her mom
Checks in on her neighbors as she's headed home

[Chorus]
At the speed... (ooh at the speed of love, ooh at the speed) of love (at this pace, ?shine, and love takes time) At the speed... (ooh at the speed of love, ooh at the speed) of love (and at the speed of love)
She's got a heart that beats at the speed of love

[Bridge]
You're never gonna read about her in the headlines
Safe to say this world will never know her name
But I believe we're gonna find when we meet at the finish line
Just how much this world was changed
By the ones who chose to run this race
At the speed... of love

[Chorus]
At the speed... (ooh at the speed of love, ooh at the speed) of love (at this pace, ?shine, and love takes time)
At the speed... (ooh at the speed of love, ooh at the speed) of love (and at the speed of love)
I want a heart that beats
God give me a heart that beats
I need a heart that beats
At the speed of love
