The Love Which Must Not Be Named
Keith Binns Oct 2011
1. How long must we suffer How long 'til it's known
It's just the way God made us, it's just the way we've grown.
No need for your anger, No need for your fears
Our love is just the same as yours We've cried as many tears.
The love which must not be named it has a name
Its name is love, Its name is love,
The love which must not be named it has a name
Its name is love, Its name is love,
And love is of God. And love is of God.
2. How long must we suffer How long must we wait
Until our sexuality no more decides our fate?
We could be married in New York So why not Sydney too?
How long before we all can say I do, I do, I do?
The love which must not be named it has a name
Its name is love, Its name is love,
The love which must not be named it has a name
Its name is love, Its name is love,
And love is of God. And love is of God.
3. God's not such a bastard to make us as we are
then say we can't express it Leave us living with that scar.
That's not the God I worship It's not what she's about
"For God so loved the world" doesn't leave anybody out.
"For God so loved the world" means every one, means every one, means every one,
"For God so loved the world" means every one, means every one, means every one.
The love which must not be named it has a name
Its name is love, Its name is love,
The love which must not be named it has a name
Its name is love, Its name is love,
And love is of God. And love is of God.

It’s Hard to Love Your Brother
Keith Binns 2014(?)
1. It’s hard to love your brother when he’s such a mother
When what he’s against is more important than what he’s for.
It’s hard to love your sister when she’s not the sister I’d choose, mister,
So I’m praying for more love from the Lord.
I thought that Christianity was all about love
And the death and resurrection of the Lord.
Now I find that to be kosher I’ve got to be a Gay basher
A price that I simply can’t afford.
2. I try to love my neighbour, whether he’s Abdul or he’s sable,
If she’s Asian or if she loves cats.
I’m diligent, I’m not idle and when I read my Bible
I find I’ve got no choice about that.
I thought that Christianity was all about love
And our sin being dealt with on the Cross
But now they’ve added more to what they had before
As the apostle Paul told the Colossians, that’s their loss.
3.Oh, it’s hard to love your brother when he’s such a mother
When hate’s the only coin he wants to spend.
Oh, it’s hard to love your sister when she’s not the sister I’d choose, mister,
You shouldn’t judge but where’s it gonna end?
Will we become like Nigeria where they love a law
That if you’re gay or lesbian you die?
That’s the ultimate consummation of your homophobic notion,
A conclusion that makes me want to cry.
4. . It’s hard to love your brother when he’s such a mother
And everyone assumes that you’re the same.
It’s hard to love your sister when she’s not the sister I’d choose, mister,
And people think she’s speaking in your name.
So I’m praying for more love from the Lord.
So I’m praying for more love from the Lord.
