Brian Wren (1936-?)

Verse 1:
F              Dm            Am
Life is great! So sing about it,
F       Bb            F
  As we can and as we should
              Dm  Bb            Am
Shops and bus-es, towns and peo-ple,
F Bbm Em    Bb         F
  Vil-lage, farm land, field and wood.
C       Gm    Bb              F
Life is great and life is giv-en;
Am           Bb       C   F
Life is love-ly, free and good.

Verse 2:
F              Dm            Am
Life is great! What ever hap-pens,
F         Bb               F
  Snow or sunshine, joy or pain,
         Dm Bb      Am
Hardship or disillu-sion,
F Bbm Em     Bb     F
  Suf-fering that I can't explain
C       Gm    Bb               F
Life is great if someone loves me,
Am            Bb        C  F
Holds my hand and calls my name.

Verse 3:
F              Dm              Am
Love is great! The love of lov-ers,
F           Bb                F
  Whispered words and longing eyes;
              Dm Bb         Am
Love that gaz-es at the cra-dle
F Bbm   Em Bb       F
  Where a  child of loving lies;
C          Gm  Bb                 F
Love that last when youth has fad-ed, 
Am              Bb      C  F
Bends with age, but nev-er dies.

Verse 4:
F           Dm             Am
Love is giv-ing and receiv-ing
F         Bb                   F
  Boy and girl, or friend with friend;
              Dm Bb         Am
Love is bear-ing and forgiv-ing
F Bbm Em  Bb         F
  All the hurts that hate can send;
C          Gm    Bb             F
Love's the great-est way or liv-ing,
Am             Bb    C   F
Hoping, trust-ing to the end.
 
Verse 5:
F             Dm                 Am
God is great! In Christ He loved us,
F       Bb                F
  As we should, but never can
              Dm     Bb             Am
Love that suf-fered, hope and trust-ed
F Bbm Em   Bb     F
  When dis-ciples turned and ran,
C         Gm    Bb                  F
Love that broke through death forev-er,
Am              Bb       C   F
Praise that lov-ing, liv-ing Man!
