Lyrics
[Intro] [Gentle Scripture Parchment & Felt Piano]
Not That We Loved God But That He Loved Us...
1 John 4:10.
Listen to the Word of God: 'This is love: not that we loved God
but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.'
[Verse 1] [Fingerpicked Acoustic & Cello Drone]
In the sacred pages of the Scriptures pure and bright
Where the Holy Spirit guides our footsteps in the light
This is love: not that we loved God
but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Walking in the covenant where holy saints have stood
No handcrafted idols, no traditions made of men
Returning to the living Word of Scripture once again
Not That We Loved God But That He Loved Us shining like a beacon in the land
Held securely in our Heavenly Father's mighty hand
[Pre-Chorus] [Acoustic Guitar & Sacred Choir]
Faithful is the promise that is given from above
Rooted in the truth of God's eternal sacred love
[Chorus] [Sacred Resonant Worship Climax]
Relying upon the unmerited love of god that redeemed our souls
Where the truest affections of the righteous ever stay
Worshiping in Spirit and in Truth along the way
Sing out, stand firm, let the pure grace flow
The greatest sacred love that we will ever know!
[Verse 2] [Felt Piano & Vocal Counterpoint]
Every holy commandment brings a quiet, noble peace
Where the blessings of the Lord will never have to cease
We look upon Mount Zion and we see the truth revealed
Where the covenant of Elohim is eternally unsealed
[Bridge] [Soaring Vocal Belt & Full Sacred Ensemble]
Oh, heaven and earth will pass away, but His Word stands sure
The testimony of our God forever shall endure
Passover, Sabbath, Feasts of God divine
Worshiping our Maker in His glorious grand design!
[Chorus] [Full Grand Sacred Climax]
Relying upon the unmerited love of god that redeemed our souls
Where the truest affections of the righteous ever stay
Worshiping in Spirit and in Truth along the way
Sing out, stand firm, let the pure grace flow
The greatest sacred love that we will ever know!
[Outro] [Acoustic Foley & Soft Organ Fading]
Not That We Loved God But That He Loved Us...
To Elohim God be all the glory. Amen.
[Fade Out]
