Passion - Awakening 2010
[John Mark McMillan cover]
He is jealous for me
Loves like a hurricane
I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory
And I realise just how beautiful You are
And how great Your affections are for me.
And oh
how He loves us so
Oh how He loves us
How He loves us all
Yeah
He loves us
Whoa! how He loves us
Whoa! how He loves.
We are His portion and He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean
we're all sinking.
So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
When I think about
the way:
Oh how He loves.
Well
I thought about You the day Stephen died
And You met me between my breaking.
I know that I still love You
God
despite the agony.
...They want to tell me You're cruel
But if Stephen could sing
he'd say it's not true
cause...
Cause He loves us
Whoa! how He loves us.
