Give away your love

A friend of mine's Facebook status is currently stating that he is 'singing songs that start with love. Today; love is something if you give it away.'

Being bored, I checked out the song - he's been doing this all week and this is the first one I've not known the song - and was struck by the fact that sometimes kids' songs are more profound, more right than those written for us adults.

"I'm telling you, once and for all, that unless you return to square one and start over like children, you're not even going to get a look at the kingdom, let alone get in. Whoever becomes simple and elemental again, like this child, will rank high in God's kingdom." Matthew 18:2-4

Here are those lyrics...

Love is something if you give it away [clap, clap]
You've got to give it away
Give it away
Love is something if you give it away [clap, clap]
You'll end up having more

Love is like a lucky penny
Hold it tight and you won't have any
But, give it away
And you'll have plenty
You'll end up having more
