Carrie Underwood can sing me the dictionary. Well, it also helps that Hillary Lindsey is the musical 'Webster's' and defines every positive adjective out there. This song just explodes your heart. There is much to be said about a song that leaves more unspoken than said; and this song is one of those rare treasures. I cannot explain why this song didn't shoot to #1 because it is more than worthy of it. Flawless production, flawless vocals, flawlessly written, stays with you...should I say more or should I just let you listen? Read these beautiful words on your second listen. This isn't a song about all the typicals in a relationship, this is the 'love of your life' type song. A long that is boundless, endless, and "Deep as the life from God's own breath." Breathtaking.

Song: "Oh Love"
Strong like a mother holds her child
Free as horses runnin' wild
Real as a prayer on a lonely night
As sure as the ocean tide
Oh love oh love
All the many colors that you’re made of
You heal you bleed
You’re the simple truth
And you’re the biggest mystery
Oh love oh love
Deep as the life from God’s own breath
Endless even after death
Gone like a sunset
You can break a heart in pieces
Put it back together again
You can break down sweet forgiveness
You’re the one that never ends
Oh love
Oh love oh love
All the many colors that you’re made of
You heal you bleed
You’re the simple truth
And you’re the biggest mystery
Oh love oh love
