I haven’t posted lyrics to my favorite songs in awhile, so I thought I would today…
This song by Sidewalk Prophets gives me goose bumps every time I hear it. It’s from their album entitled “These Simple Truths”
Someday when I get the opportunity to sing a solo again, this would be one of my top choices. Here are the lyrics…
“You Love Me Anyway”
By Sidewalk Prophets
“The question was raised
as my conscience fell
a silly, little lie.
It didn’t mean much
but it lingers still
in the corners of my mind.
Still you call me to walk
on the edge of this world
to spread my dreams and fly.
But the future’s so far
my heart is so frail
I think I’d rather stay inside.
But You love me anyway.
It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known.
Yes You love me anyway.
Oh Lord, how You love me.
How You love me.
It took more than my strength
to simply be still
to seek but never find.
All the reasons we change
the reasons I doubt
and why do loved ones have to die?
But You love me anyway.
It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known.
Yes You love me anyway.
Oh Lord, how You love me.
How You love me.
I am the thorn in Your crown
but You love me anyway
I am the sweat from Your brow
but You love me anyway
I am the nail in Your wrist
but You love me anyway
I am Judas’ kiss
but You love me anyway
See now, I am the man who yelled out from the crowd
for Your blood to be spilled on this earth shaking ground.
Yes then, I turned away with a smile on my face
with this sin in my heart, tried to bury Your grace.
And then alone in the night, I still called our to You
So ashamed of my life, my life, my life.
But You love me anyway
Oh God, how You love me.
Yes, You love me anyway.
It’s like nothing in life that I’ve ever known.
Yes You love me anyway.
Oh Lord, how You love me.
You love me, yes You love me.
How You love me
How You love me
How You love me.”
Just typing the words gave me chills! Here’s the extremely moving video.
No matter what we do or have done or will do in the future, Jesus will love us anyway. That’s so comforting.
Until next time…
Happy Blogging!
