Song Lyric Sunday was created by Helen Vahdati from This Thing Called Life One Word at a Time and author Jim Adams from A Unique Title For Me is our current guest host. For complete rules or to join in the fun, click here.
This week’s theme is “Hills/Mountains.”
Written by the amazing Diane Warren, Love Can Move Mountains was first recorded by Celine Dion in 1992. With its up-tempo pop beat drawing influence from gospel and dance music and lyrics detailing the abilities that love has as an emotion, the song charted worldwide and was a Top 40 hit in the U.S.
However, my favorite version of Love Can Move Mountains is from 2016’s The Passion: New Orleans, a contemporary retelling of the Passion of Jesus Christ aired during the Easter weekend.
Jencarlos Canela, Prince Royce, Shane Harper, and Michael W. Smith lead the cast in a rousing rendition of the song.
Enjoy!

Love Can Move Mountains
Have a chance
To come true now
It just takes a little faith
Anything that we want to do
We can do now
There ain’t nothing in our way baby
Nothing our love couldn’t raise above
We can get through the night
We can get to the light
Long as we got our love to
Light the way
With a little faith
Just a little trust
If you believe in love
Love can move mountains
Believe in your heart
And feel, feel it in your soul
And love baby love can
Move mountains
Ocean deep and mountains high
They can’t stop us
Because love is on our side baby
We can reach the heavens and
Touch the sky
Just believe it, believe in you and I baby
If we got love that is strong enough
We can do anything, make it
through anything
‘Coz through it all love will always
Find a way
With a little faith, , ,
You believe in me
I’ll believe in you
If we believe in each other
Nothing we can’t do
If we got love that’s strong enough
Love will find a way
With a little faith
This song carries a lot of energy.

Michael W. Smith, now there’s a name I haven’t heard in forever. I remember when his duet with Amy Grant “Somewhere, Somehow” took all the airwaves by craze. It became a Karaoke and Choir classic in an instant LOL

I think Christian/Inspirational sales were neck and neck with pop sales back when Michael and Amy were on the charts. Good times! 🙂
