Contemporary Christian supergroup Switchfoot has released Love Alone is Worth the Fight as the second single off its new release, Fading West. I’m enjoying Love Alone is Worth the Fight immensely; it’s a brilliant song and instantly catchy. Christian AC and Christian CHR are picking up on this song, and it’s been a while since Switchfoot’s last Top 10 hit on Christian AC – This is Your Life in 2004, although Your Love is a Song made NO. 18 last year – and I think this may be that hit waiting to happen. Come on, Christian AC!
LOVE ALONE IS WORTH THE FIGHT Lyrics
Switchfoot
I’m trying to find where my place is
I’m looking for my own oasis
So close I can taste this
The fear that love alone erases
So I’m back to the basics
I figure it’s time I face this
Time to take my own advice
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
And I never thought it’d come to this
But it seems like I’m finally feeling numb to this
The funny thing about a name is
You forget what the reason you were playing the game is
And it’s all an illusion
A 21st century institution
So I’m headed down the open road unknown
And we find what we’re made of
Through the open door
Is it fear you’re afraid of?
What are you waiting for?
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
We’re only here for a season
I’m looking for the rhyme and reason
Why you’re born, why you’re leaving
What you fear and what you believe in
Why you’re living and breathing
Why you’re fighting it and getting it even
Let’s go headed down the open road unknown
And we find what we’re made of
Through the open door
Is it fear you’re afraid of?
What are you waiting for?
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh! Oh!
Here we are, here we go
Where the road is our own
Hear it calling you home
Here we are, here we go!
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
