To love every living soul,
all we need is God's grace.
You can see God
in the humble people you meet.
To love every living soul,
all we need is God's grace.
You can see God
in the humble people you meet.
Just to give,
a willing heart is enough.
To hide away,
there is nothing left.
It never dries up on this earth—
the moisture of the river of mercy.
The moisture of the river of mercy.
The great light of love.
The great light of love.
The great light of love.
The great light of love.
Knowing the hunger of a soul,
would God ever sleep?
In a heart where light spreads,
the truth will surely be found.
To leave its footprints behind,
does a bird ever care?
If you give, forgetting yourself,
generations will speak of it.
A love as vast as the sky
never becomes a wound.
It never dries up on this earth—
the moisture of the river of mercy.
To love every living soul,
all we need is God's grace.
Chorus: The great light of love.
To love every living soul,
all we need is God's grace.
You can see God
in the humble people you meet.
Just to give,
a willing heart is enough.
To hide away,
there is nothing left.
It never dries up on this earth—
the moisture of the river of mercy.
The moisture of the river of mercy.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This soul-stirring composition emphasizes that true divinity resides in loving every living soul and seeing God within humble human beings rather than seeking the divine elsewhere. It champions unconditional charity, empathy, and selfless service, arguing that a heart willing to give creates an eternal legacy that future generations will honor. Metaphorically describing mercy as an ever-flowing river whose moisture never parches the earth, the song frames love as a supreme light that dispels dark selfishness and brings real truth to the human mind.
