a love vast as the ocean

Here is love vast as the ocean
Loving kindness as the flood
When the Prince of life, our ransom
Shed for us His precious blood
Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten
Throughout Heaven's eternal days

On the Mount of Crucifixion
Fountains opened deep and wide
Through the floodgates of God's mercy
Flowed a vast and gracious tide
Grace and love, like mighty rivers
Poured incessant from above
And Heaven's peace and perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love

Let us all His love accepting
Love Him ever all our days
Let us seek His Kingdom only
And our lives be to His praise
He alone shall be our glory
Nothing in the world we see
He has cleansed and sanctified us
He Himself has set us free

In His truth He does direct me
By His Spirit through His Word
And His grace my need is meeting
As I trust in Him, my Lord
All His fullness He is pouring
In His love and power in me
Without measure
Full and boundless
As I yield myself to Thee

Oh Lord. I'm sorry for the thing I've made it when it's all about You.
It's all about You, Jesus.
Thank You for freedom.
Thank You for abundant life.

Dear friends, both near and far:
The ones I've lost touch with and the ones I see daily, how deep and true and powerful and strong His love for you is. Today. In this moment. Despite ANYTHING that's happened. Your sins? Washed away. Your failures? Not even remembered. His love is wider. higher. deeper. truer. No love is like His. No one loves you the way He loves you. Believe that. Tonight, believe it. He wants today to be different. Draw near to Him. He will draw near to you. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. [James 4] Be touched. Be reminded. Oh how badly I hope this means something to you.

[Because regardless of what you think or feel right now: THIS IS FOR REAL. IT'S TRUTH.]
