All that His Love Is

Quite simply, I heard this song today and wanted to share it. I'm sure some of you have heard it before, but if you haven't (or even if you have) I implore you to take a minute and listen to it. It's called "Your Love Is Strong" by Jon Foreman.

"Heavenly Father, you always amaze me.
Let your kingdom come in my world and in my life.
Give me the food I need to live through today
and forgive me as I forgive the people that wrong me.
Lead me far from temptation.
Deliver me from the evil one.

I look out the window, the birds are composing.
Not a note is out of tune or out of place.
I walk to the meadow and stare at the flowers
better dressed than any girl on her wedding day.

So why do I worry? Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need. You know what I need.

Your love is
Your love is 
Your love is strong
Your love is
Your love is 
Your love is strong
Your love is
Your love is 
Your love is strong

The kingdom of the heavens is now advancing.
Invade my heart, invade this broken town.
The kingdom of the heavens is buried treasure.
Would you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?

Two things you told me: that you are strong,
and you love me. Yes, you love me.

Your love is
Your love is 
Your love is strong
Your love is
Your love is 
Your love is strong
Your love is
Your love is 
Your love is strong

Our God in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Above all names
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us weary sinners
Keep us far away from our vices
And deliver us from these prisons."

Tonight, I also heard this: "I don't have to be afraid, because I know that you love me, and your love never fails." His love never fails to astound me in all of its abilities, its strength, its endurance, and its magnitude. 


In all of its perfection.
