If that Isn't Love

Words & Music: Dottie Rambo
He left the splendor of heaven
Knowing His destiny
Was the lonely hill of Golgotha
There to lay down His life for me

And if that isn't love
Then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky
And the little sparrows can't fly
Yeah if that isn't love
Then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this
If that isn't love

Even in death He remembered
The thief hanging by His side
Then he spoke of love and compassion
And He took him to paradise

And if that isn't love
Then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky
And the little sparrows can't fly
Yeah if that isn't love
Then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this
If that isn't love It's got to be love
Recorded: 1973/12/16, first released on Good Times

Very close to being good enough for release as a single, maybe at Easter time. Just needed that final touch. A gospel single didn't have to be a 'pop' song. Anyway, yes, I like this recording.

Solid, but unspectacular gospel track. Elvis sings it well, but I think the arrangement and production could have been better.

Awesome vocals...This song should of been the title of a another gospel album. Along with "Help Me" and "I Got a Feeling" Elvis should of recorded more of this stuff at Stax in '73 and possibly '74.
