A song about showing God's love, instead of talking about it.

Bridgette Koteles

My name is Bridgette. I have been singing since I was a child, and growing up, our house was always filled with music of all types. I started entering in Schoo

Thanks for stopping by! My name is Bridgette Koteles. I've been involved with music since I was a small child. I started writing songs at the age of 18, and I try to write songs that will touch someone to the core. I love to write and sing songs of all types. I try to challenge myself where I can. One of my biggest challenges is producing the music to my songs. I've always said, I'm a singer/song writer first, and a composer only when I have to be. I'm in it for the music, because to me, that's where it's at, but I sure wouldn't complain, if it went somewhere.

Story behind the song

I wrote this song, after I got so tired of hearing how much God loves people, but I wasn't seeing the love from the ones saying it.

Lyrics

The time for talk is done,
I'm getting tired of listening,
How many souls have you won,
With all of that preaching,

When is the last time,
That you fed a starving man,
Or gave a child a drink of water,
From the palm of your hand,

You won't show it through a book,
Or a serman that you preach,
for love is the only way,
A lost soul can be reached,

So if you want to show God's love,
And really make it clear,
Open your heart, And shut your mouth,
Or words are all I'll hear.

so how are you gonna reach,
Someone who's lost their faith,
If all they have to go on,
Are the words that you say,

Do you show them that you love them,
Encouraging them along the way,
Or tell them God is always good,
A hundred times a day...

You won't show it through a book,
Or a serman that you preach,
for love is the only way,
A lost soul can be reached,

So if you want to show God's love,
And really make it clear,
Open your heart, And shut your mouth,
Or words are all I'll hear.

sometimes it's not the words you say,
But the little things you do,
That can turn a hurting heart around,
and make a broken faith brandnew...

You won't show it through a book,
Or a serman that you preach,
for love is the only way,
A lost soul can be reached,

 So if you want to show God's love,
And really make it clear,
Open your heart, And shut your mouth,
Or your words are all I'll hear.


So if you want to show God's love,
And really make it clear,
Open your heart, And shut your mouth,
Or your words are all I'll hear.

So open your heart, and shut your mouth,
Or words are all I'll hear.

(Speaking part),

Be quiet now,
 shshshshsh
That's right, be quiet...
