Divine Love

What do you say to a love that is so pure and perfect? How do you even begin to describe it? Despite what you have done and how much you have grieved another's heart, and still... you are forgiven. Everything's forgotten, you are washed clean. What about a love that believes in you, still trusts despite your many broken promises, still perseveres despite your stubbornness, still there when hope is gone? A love that makes you feel so secure, because despite how you look, how you feel inside, you are always... accepted, just the way you are. As imperfect as you can be, yet loved for every flaw. What kind of love is this? It's agape, simply agape.

Before the world began,
You were on His mind,
and every tear you cried,
was precious in His eyes,
Because of His great love,
He gave His only Son,
Everything was done,
So you would come.

Nothing you can do,
Could make Him love you more,
Nothing that you've done,
Could make Him close the door,
The power of the word,
The power of His blood,
Everything was done,
So you would come.

Come to the Father,
Though your gift is small,
Broken hearts, broken lives,
He will take them all,
The power of the word,
The power of His blood,
Everything was done,
So you would come.

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8: 38-39
