It starts with a smile, a simple kind of light,
A hand that reaches out when the world ain’t right.
You never know who’s hurting deep inside,
But love moves faster when it’s multiplied.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t wait for a reason, don’t count the cost,
What you give away, it’s never lost.
One spark can light a thousand more,
That’s what kindness was made for.
⸻
[Chorus]
Pay it forward, let the love roll on,
Like a river that keeps flowing strong.
Every heart that you lift today
Will lift another along the way.
Pay it forward, don’t hold it in,
Let the grace of God begin again.
When you shine, the world shines too —
What He gave to you, let it move through you.
⸻
[Verse 2]
That stranger you helped could be heaven-sent,
A chance to show what true love meant.
You plant the seed, God makes it grow,
That’s the power of the love you show.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t wait for a thank-you, don’t need applause,
Mercy lives beyond the flaws.
Every act’s a prayer in motion,
Turn your heart into devotion.
⸻
[Chorus]
Pay it forward, let the love roll on,
Like a river that keeps flowing strong.
Every heart that you lift today
Will lift another along the way.
Pay it forward, don’t hold it in,
Let the grace of God begin again.
When you shine, the world shines too —
What He gave to you, let it move through you.
⸻
[Bridge]
(Soft harmony rise)
Love ain’t just a feeling, it’s a choice you make,
A little light in every step you take.
God gave us hands to heal, not fight,
So keep passing on that holy light.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Pay it forward, yeah, pass it down,
Let His love echo all around.
From soul to soul, from heart to heart,
That’s how heaven’s work will start.
Pay it forward, don’t fade away,
Be the blessing someone prays for today.
When you shine, the world shines too —
God’s love begins again through you.
⸻
[Outro]
(Soft layered vocals)
Pay it forward…
Let His love keep rolling through you…
Yeah, pay it forward…
That’s what He made your heart to do.
