“Words Make the World Go Round” -  Josh Pyke and Justine Clarke

I was listening to the radio yesterday and heard this song, (It is on U-Tube if you would like to listen) , but it made me think about the  letter ”L”  and two “words”  LOVE and LIFE. The lyrics of the song as below:

"L" is a letter - "Love" is a word -   Paint a picture -Of the world

And the world is a planet , And we're all hanging out in space
Words can solve the puzzle ,Of this complicated place

So, how do you spell love?  L-O-V-E
How do you spell life? L-I-F-E

We've seen the more we speak them ,  Words will change the world
That's why they're so intriguing

Words tell a story   So, settle in
Words ask questions   Like what happens in the end

And a book is like a movie  But it's playing in your head
You don't have to be alone  'Cause words will be your friend

So, how do you spell love? L-O-V-E
How do you spell life?  L-I-F-E

We write the more we read them, Words will change the world
That's why they're so intriguing, Words make the world go 'round

We sing the more we speak them, We write the more we read them

Words make the world go 'round.  Say the lyrics slowly, they seem to then make sense.

John1:1 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

 John 6: 35 - Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
