    Love Them Anyway this song was inspired by a poem on a wall in Mother Theresa’s children’s ward in Calcutta. It’s a song inspiring us to love our aquaintances , and really, everybody dispite what they do to us. We're sometimes in situations where we are treated somwhat less that ideally, and we should love them as if they were our own brothers.

    Story Behind the Song
    Love Them Anyway
    I took the words almost directly from the poem Anyway, on a wall in Mother Theresa’s children’s ward in Calcutta. It’s funny that I was writing the song and suddenly remembered that I had written a song based on the poem several years earlier. I searched the house and finally found the old copy. The new version was almost exactly the same as the old one. Of course, I took liberties with the chorus and the bridge.

    Lyrics
    LOVE THEM ANYWAY (Mother Teresa’s song) Doug Urquhart
    Inspired by “Anyway”, a poem on the wall of Mother Teresa’s children’s home in Calcutta, India
    Copies are available from Thomas J. Bradley

    If you do good, people will accuse you of ulterior motives
    Do good anyway
    And if you succeed, envy will surround you, and your enemies hate you
    Love them anyway
    Though they need help, people will despise you and resent you for helping
    Help them anyway

    Give the world the best you can though all that you give is rejected
    If all you build should crumble into sand and even your life is affected
    Love them anyway, love them anyway

    Oh Lord, bless our works with love though our works don’t accomplish enough
    People slander and push us away,
    In Your name we forgive and forget all the pain
    Love them anyway, love them anyway

    People may seem illogical and selfish, not deserving of love
    Love them anyway, love them anyway
    Those who accuse you and abuse you and never ask your forgiveness
    Love them anyway, love them anyway

    Give the world the best you can though all that you give is rejected
    If all you build should crumble into sand and even your life is affected
    Love them anyway, love them anyway
