For you and for me, weary friends.
The following lyrics don't need a lot of explaining. We sang this in church today and it spoke to me, so I wanted to share it with all of you. I hope it speaks to you too. Whatever you're going through, just know, He is fighting for you.
Go slow, turn off distractions, and absorb every word.
Reckless Love - Cory Asbury
Before I spoke a word, You were singing over me You have been so, so good to me Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me You have been so, so kind to me
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah
When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me You have been so, so good to me When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me You have been so, so kind to me
And oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine And I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah
There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me
There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me
There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me
There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine And I couldn't earn it, I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah
