Song Biography – “Listen to Love”

Listen to Love is the story of the struggle for the soul of man. On one side we are lied to and cajoled by the Lord of Darkness, who only wants our destruction, and on the other side we are gently urged to listen to The Voice of Love, that speaks only Truth, and longs for our good.

This world is a dark place and it can be very hard at times to stay positive about living here. Sometimes the pressure seems too much and ending it all seems like a viable option. But this is a fallacy. There is an eternity beyond this life and we need to be prepared for it.

Satan hates Jesus and the one way that he can get to Him is to take from Him as many people as he can, as he knows He loves each person so intensely, and longs for all to be saved.

And so, like the coward he is, he comes to people who are already down and lies to them, coaxing them to take their lives. This is a pseudo-solution, yet it sadly has caught so many out with it’s promise of relief from the pain of this life.

I want this song to save lives, to reach out to those who are considering the lies of the Enemy. I want to call them to Jesus, the One who truly cares for and loves us. Please “Listen to Love”, He is there for you.

Blessings,
Karah
