Yeah, He Loves Us :)

i discovered a song this summer that spoke to my heart and rocked me in a huge way.

this summer i didn't expect to do anything special; anything worth mentioning.
but for whatever reason, God felt it was better for me to jump into a job and place where i didn't know anyone or anything.

this summer, God provided in ways i didn't think possible. when i was scared, He comforted me; when i was lonely, He provided a family.

i learned that God is more than enough for me, and that He really does love me, more than I could ever possibly know.

all i know is that I want to love like God does.

i want to love so ridiculously much that it hurts me to see others hurting.
i want Gods love.

this song is about that. Gods love that is so jealous, that is so great, that is so graceful.
this song paints a beautiful picture of His love for us.

i pray you enjoy this song and are affected by it as much as i am.
(if you have any questions, message me)
(if you feel like someone would appreciate this song tag them as well)

How He Loves- John Mark McMillan

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 realize how beautiful you are
And how great your afflictions for me

Oh how he loves us so
Oh how he loves us
How he loves us so

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 realize how beautiful you are
And how great your afflictions for me

Oh how he loves us so
Oh how he loves us
How he loves us so

Yea He loves us
Oh how

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 meats earth like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart burns 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 so
Oh how he loves us
How he loves us so

Yea He loves us
Oh how

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
See people they want to tell me your cruel
But if Stephen could sing
He'd say its not true
Cause your good

Yea He loves us
Oh, how He loves
