The Mystery Of His Love

Lord, I cannot illustrate,
the mystery of Your love
for it rises higher
than the moon above.

I cannot measure it,
not the distance or the length
I cannot grasp it
not its power or its strength.

I cannot calculate it,
not the width or the depth
I cannot fathom it
for I can’t analyze its breadth.

I cannot describe it,
not how near or how far
I cannot spell out it
for I can’t explain where You are.

I cannot imagine it,
beyond what my eyes can see
and yet I am amazed
that to infinity ~ You love me.

Lord, I cannot illustrate
this mystery from above
yet I know I cannot live without
Your everlasting love!

Ephesians 3:17-19
King James Version

“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith;
that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
May be able to comprehend with all saints
what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge,
that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.”

The Lord is My Savior ~

The Lord is my Savior,
what more do I need
when I am hungry
on His Word, I feed.

He renews my spirit,
in the verses I read
He calms my soul
when to His ways I heed.

Through I have troubles,
I have nothing to fear
for I know my Lord
will always be near.

He brings me relief,
when I lean on His promise
to lead and guide me
out of the darkness.

He’s preparing me a place,
with His blood I’m anointed
in Him, my joy overflows
I’ll not be disappointed.

His justice and forgiveness,
in my heart I will store
until the day I meet  Him
upon heaven’s shore.

The Lord is my Savior . . .
what more do I need!
