Love and the Outcome is a husband-and-wife duo out of Canada. Both were in the Christian music business before in separate adventures, but God brought them together now, and what amazing music they are making! This song is about knowing God better. Too many people go through the motions and forget that God wants people to know Him personally. We need more than head knowledge. We need to tune our hearts to him. Talk to Him. Express praise and love to Him. The Bible speaks of the heart often. For instance, Jesus once said, "...Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written: 'These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.'" (Mark 7:6) I love the line in the song, "Once I was lost, but now I'm found, No strings attached, when He saved my soul, I want you to know, the God I know." Amen!

And he said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, “‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ You leave the commandment of God and hold to the tradition of men.” And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to establish your tradition!
Lyrics:
If it was all about religion What to do, what to say What to wear on a Sunday
All about perfection Black and white, wrong or right, never gray Well, I'd never make it I'd never be good enough (oh-oh-oh)
I try to walk the line, pray that I'd find Something that I knew was real Began to realize, the harder I tried The colder I'd start to feel Until the moment, the second I met Your Love (Oh-oh-oh)
And then I threw my hands up, worries down I remember when He showed me how To break up with my doubt Once I was lost, but now I'm found No strings attached, when He saved my soul I want you to know, the God I know Oh, you got to know, oh, the God I know
He is more than just a rescue That's where it starts Not where it ends, let freedom in More than just a story, in the sky, wearing white He's alive, in every moment And now that I know this Love (oh-oh-oh)
I can throw my hands up, worries down I remember when He showed me how To break up, with my doubt Once I was lost, but now I'm found No strings attached, when He saved my soul I want you to know, the God I know Oh, you got to know, oh, the God I know
What was I waiting for I came alive when I let go All I had was a broken heart Then He held me in His arms
What was I waiting for I came alive when I let go All I had was a broken heart Then He held me in His arms
I can throw my hands up, worries down I remember when He showed me how To break up, with my doubt Once I was lost, but now I'm found No strings attached, when He saved my soul I want you to know, the God I know Oh, you got to know, oh, the God I know
What was I waiting for I came alive when I let go All I had was a broken heart Then He held me in His arms
What was I waiting for I came alive when I let go All I had was a broken heart Then He held me in His arms Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
