I am singing this song a lot these days: How He Loves, lyrics by John Mark Mcmillan
He is jealous for me Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree Bending beneath the weight of His love and mercy When all of a sudden I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory And I realize 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 so * * * * * Yeah, He loves us Oh, how He loves us Oh, how He loves us Oh, 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 the heart turns violently inside of my chest I don't have time to maintain these regrets When I think about the way He loves us, oh, how He loves us… * * * * *
Check this song out on youtube, Kim Walker leading, and stick with it to the end (it's a full 8 minutes and 49 seconds) for an amazing "love encounter." The girl can preach! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWnvBM40xxw
John 3:16 is the ultimate Valentine! He loves us…Jeanie
NOTE TO SELF: Quit maintaining regrets.
Love the song! As I listened I wept and began to sing along. Oh, how he loves us!
